The stone retains its rich black dyed finish, beautifully contrasted by intricate, hand-etched white sgraffito geometric patterns and textures. One of the pieces features a subtly carved notch on the rim, making it functional as an ashtray or a decorative trinket holder.

Fabulous provenance on the base:
- Hand-etched maker mark: "AHL 1992"
