Height x diameter: 88.5 x 4.2 cm
The elongated rounded dark-coloured handle has a circular insert at the top, which can be identified as Cerasuolo coral (Corallo cerasuolo, Corallum Eliatus).

A little further down, there is a thin dividing band, also made of ivory, with a posthumous inscription: ‘PALERMO F.C 1900’.
