A dado is shown at the bottom, an entablature consisting of a few moldings beneath two darkly colored stripes on top. The moldings at the bottom of the entablature are colored yellow and brown and show ornamentations. The panel is dark blue and decorated in white. Vertical stems with leaves and seeds support a horizontal band which shows clasp motifs alternating with rosettes. The vertical stems are continued above the band by calyx stands with petals. They are connected by semicircles formed by boughs and a rosette. Shorter boughs form incomplete semicircles, beneath the upper ones.
