A medium-brown wood panel is covered in intricate carved patterns across three sections. In the center, two flowering plants grow under side-by-side arches. This is flanked by large eight-petaled rosettes within lobed frames, surrounded by smaller blossoms. A repeating leaf pattern borders the entire composition and divides the sections. Deep rectangular notches on the far edges show where this piece joined a larger structure.
