Ninth plate of album with 20 pochoir pattern plates with designs for textiles and carpets, titled "Suggestions pour étoffes et tapis: 60 motifs en couleur" (Suggestions for stuffs and carpets: 60 color motifs), created by E.A. Séguy and published in Paris by Massin & Cie in 1923. The plate contains two designs with semi-abstract motifs inspired from nature, executed with lively colors. The first design is made up of thin, interlacing branches with leaves, colored with dark blue and purple, and semi-abstract rosettes, with white petals and green anthers, on an orange ground. The second design is made up of alternating strips with pairs of semi-abstract flowers, executed with shades of green, dark blue, and light brown, and scattered semi-abstract leaves, colored with shades of green, on a light green ground.
