Fifteenth 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 bundles of semi-abstract flowers with red sepals, outlined with grayish-blue intermittent lines, and light green petals, and semi-abstract leaves, colored with brown, dark purple, and silver, and thin, offsetting branches, colored with brown and silver. The second design is made up of thin, interlacing branches with thin, long leaves, colored with brown, purple, and silver, and bundles of four, stylized leaves, executed with green, gray, and red, on a light green ground.
