A well-modelled porcelain figure of a sailor, possibly represented dancing the hornpipe. He leans forward with the weight on his left leg, his left hand on his hip and his right hand to a very wide brimmed black hat. He wears very wide, white trousers and shirt, and a grey guernsey and black neckerchief. The figure is supported by a wooden staff.
