The vases are of baluster form and each one is mounted at either side with twin porcelain handles which take the form of scrolling acanthus leaves. The vases are set on waisted socles on round ormolu bases which are cast in the form of laurel garlands. The central cartouches on the body of each vase shows a still-life depiction of bouquets of flowers in a basket on a table. The front and reverse cartouches are the same on each vase, and each is set inside a border of gilt scrolling foliage on Sevres blue, or cobalt blue, ground.

Each vase has a lid which is decorated with ormolu foliage around the rim and is surmounted by an ormolu pine cone finial. The undersides of the vases are marked with the interlaced-L mark for Sevres.
