Of classic bell-form, this huqqa base rests on a wide, spreading circular foot that rises to a gracefully constricted waist before swelling into a compressed globular body. The form culminates in a pronounced, lathe-turned collar that separates the body from a tall, tapering cylindrical neck, which concludes in a slightly flared rim. The entire object is crafted from a distinctive blackened metal alloy, characteristic of Bidriware, which provides a dramatic, matte-finished ground for the profuse silver inlay that covers its surface.

The decorative programme is meticulously executed and divided into registers. The broad foot is adorned with a wide band featuring a continuous, undulating vine motif interspersed with stylised leaves and floral heads. The main body of the vessel is the focus of the ornamentation, displaying a series of elegant, vertical cartouches. Each cartouche contains a finely detailed depiction of a flowering plant, likely a poppy, rising from a small mound. These floral sprays are flanked by smaller, pendant-like motifs and delicate scrolling tendrils that fill the intervening spaces. Notably, small, architectonic elements resembling vases or censers are also integrated into this primary decorative field.

The shoulder of the base is defined by a narrow band of repeating foliate design, providing a visual transition to the neck. The neck itself is decorated with vertical panels of arabesque and foliate forms, echoing the motifs on the body but on a more slender scale. The inlay technique appears to be a combination of tarkashi (wire inlay) for the fine stems and outlines, and tahnishan (sheet inlay) for the broader leaves and petals, demonstrating a high level of technical mastery by the artisan.
