A commemorative presentation relief plaque of rectangular form, cast in a silver-toned metal, likely pewter. The plaque depicts a firefighter rendered in high relief, wearing a historic-style uniform and helmet characteristic of the late 19th to early 20th-century Imperial German era. The figure is shown wielding a traditional fire hook (Feuerhaken) against a detailed backdrop of a brick wall and a doorway, with stylised smoke and flames visible in the upper-left corner. The piece is finished with a dark antiqued patina to highlight the sculptural details. An applied rectangular metal plate is fixed to the base, featuring an engraved inscription in two lines.
