The leaf is divided into three fields by frame ornamentation consisting of Rococo scallop motifs highlighted by lines of spangles. In all three there are Rococo figures placed in an outline garden setting: in the middle field there is a young couple arm in arm, in the left-hand field there is a gentleman and in the right-hand field a lady. Around the fields there are small flowers. The sticks exhibit the same small flower ornamentation. The upper ends of the guard-sticks are pierced.
