The body of the pyxis is decorated with a bull, griffin, and dog in profile with volutes on each side of the dog separating it from the other creatures. The lid is decorated by a pattern of palmettes and volutes surrounded by a border of egg-and-dart. There is a hole in the center of the lid where a knob handle would have attached.For the latest information about this object, Pyxis with Animal Frieze, visit the Online Collection of the Walters Art Museum.
