On the top the motif is repeated more than twice the motif of a Renaissance vase between two symmetrically placed angels with a palm branch, sitting on ranking, in which a horn of abundance is included and of which the second volute ends in a mask. The partially repeated show on the lower frieze is derived from hunting: a rider and his footsters are on the falcon hunt, a man holds a piece of meat (?) For a lion, a rider hunts with three dogs on a deer, that also is approached by a footmeg with a lance, while a man blows on a horn.
