It features dual wire bail handles and a conforming domed lid with a central D-shaped handle. Internally, the boiler contains a removable white enamel perforated trivet or strainer insert with two integrated wire lift handles. The second item is a primitive metal oiler of bulbous form, featuring a fixed, tapered spout and a thumb-lever dispensing mechanism.
