The silver cylindrical coronet is divided into two parts: a base and an upper part.

The convexed base is decorated with tied ribbons and a star between them. The upper and lower bands are a serrated pattern filled with grooves. The lower edges of the base are decorated with rhomboids encircling a dot. The upper part is decorated with a band of dots surmounted by a band of grooves. The central part is decorated with a vase from which flowers, leaves and branches are raised. Two scrolls exit from the base of the vase. The motif between the vases is scrolls in a shape of an arch around a flower which both sides are flowers with branches and leaves. The coronet has wavy edges decorated with a shell with three leaves on each side.

A bar with rectangular holes for the staves is attached across the lower part of the coronet.
