Not jousting..does however appear to be in front of a castle or some tall structure. Man's face with large prominent facial features(ears, nose,eyes) wearing ruffled collared shirt. There are very unique shaped pieces along the sides of the bottle with arrow shaped ends where ones feet would be placed if standing up. The other pieces seem to resemble windows with small diamond shapes and sun beams?? These embellishments appear to have be made in small molds.
