On a rectangular three-tiered base stands a plinth with the inscription: 'In CoeLo et In VnIVersa terra sItLaVs honor et gLorIa Deo trI = Vno et seMpIterno'. On the plinth is a decorated extension with a motif of pipes, terminating in a moulded cornice, on which is a globe-shaped base with winged angel heads. On the globe sit the figures of Christ and God the Father. Christ on his right side holds a cross in his raised right hand. Above the figures is a dove in a rayed gloriole.
