The uncoloured leaf is framed at the top by a narrow leaf motif and along the two sides by scallops and flowers. Stretching across almost the entire width of the leaf is a six-foiled field—actually three fields running into each other—with a painted frame highlighted with spangles and containing the following depiction: next to a young dancing girl attired in pink are a child Harlequin and Pierrot. On each side are love symbols— a basket of flowers, pipes, a burning torch, a quiver, and two doves-among swirling brown clouds. The sticks are embellished with festoons of leaves, and every second stick with four round berry-like ornaments covered in red foil. A variation of this last-mentioned motif features on the guard-sticks.
