Five thorny stems reach up from the foot and bifurcate at the shoulder, where one branch, bearing two stylised fruits, curves back to meet the next and the other reaches up the neck and ends in a third fruit. The curving branches separate the bottom white register from the top yellow register. Both foot and neck are finished with double black stripes.
