The side seems to have been cut on the other short side. The symmetrical pattern consists of curved acanthus leaves and multifaceted flowers. The motifs are made up of feston stitches, where different patterns in the flowers and leaves have been realized with recesses. The motifs are not completely 'flat', but have slight relief contour lines. The outside sides of the side are finished with a fine bow edge. A purple piece of textile is sewn on one corner on which a fragment side is placed at the back that comes from the damaged and provisional restored flower top in this corner.
