It was silver and gilded, with a maximum diameter of 31 cm, a height of 4.9 cm, and a weight of 3190 grams. The plate was round, with curled lips, thick walls, and circular feet. It was originally gilded but most of it had fallen off. The plate was decorated with embossed patterns, which were divided into three circles: the outer circle was 16 groups of grape rolls and grass patterns that were connected to each other and evenly arranged, with birds and other animals living in them. The middle circle was ring-shaped and small, with 12 human heads inside, decorated with birds and other animals. The center part was a slightly raised circular area with a diameter of about 9.5 centimeters. It was molded into a high embossed with a silver sheet and then inlaid in the center of the plate. The pattern was of a young man sitting on the back of a lion-leopard beast. He had curly hair and no beard. His body was fit and healthy, and his upper part was bare.
