Über vier Füßen in Form von Adlern mit ausgebreiteten Schwingen die gestuften Amethystplatten, welche mit Empire-Reliefs in Ormolu verziert sind. Darauf stehend jeweils die Skulptur eines Rhinozeroses, welches in Bronze gearbeitet und brüniert ist und auf seinem Rücken einen amethystbeschlagenen Obelisken auf Ormolu-Montierung trägt. Die Objekte nehmen formalen Bezug auf Giovanni Lorenzo Berninis (1598-1680) "Obeliskenträger vor der Basilika Santa Maria sopra Minerva" in Rom, welcher sich bei seiner Ausführung wiederum auf einen Ausschnitt aus der Hypnerotomachia Poliphili bezog, die 1499 in Italien erschien.
