Five kidney-shaped fields are formed by black lace put onto an uncoloured leaf by way of a border. On these can be seen bouquets of roses and forget-me-nots tied together with coloured ribbons, and, in the middle one, a swallow flying above a festoon of flowers. The ornamentation on the sticks consists of grooved fields with wavy edges.
