The body is shaped like a vase and chased with concave spoon impressions. The samovar has no draft opening and stands on a square base. One side of the chimney is flat. The handles are shaped like stylized shells and are attached to the body with fluted rosettes. The spigot has a raised rosette at its base. The tap key is shaped like a branch. The lid is stepped, with two wooden grips (replacements) and a steam vent. The fire grate and the plug are missing. The lid bears a partially worn stamp: «Н. Маликов».
