The high base is supported on two scroll feet at the sides, and one at centre back, above which there is a loop handle with a flower on top, attached to a tall tree trunk with a candle nozzle at the top. On either side of the trunk there are many small white May flowers, and, here and there, larger blue and white, puce, white and yellow, or orange and yellow flowers of different varieties. The cock, with red, yellow, and purple plumage, stands in the centre with on the ground at his feet, a gold necklace and a pendant or brooch. On his left there is a white hen with areas of red feathers with one chick on its back and sheltering below it. On the right there is a pale brown hen with a larger white chick. On the base around them are applied flowers and leaves. The front of the base is inscribed in gold 'THE COCK & THE JE (rest illegible), and the scrolls are picked out in gold. At the top of the tree trunk there is a candle socket with a drip pan formed by six pointed green leaves, and a nozzle in the shape of a flower with a calyx of leaves, and a blue edge with an inner row of black spots.
