Summary

A dado is shown at the bottom, an entablature on top. The background of the panel is divided into broad pale rose and narrow green and dark rose stripes. Upon these rise candelabra, for which two designs are suggested alternatively, in the lower and upper parts. They consist of straight stems with petals and blossom and leaf boughs and of two kinds of leaf boughs, respectively. Two horizontal and purple stripes are on top.
