The second design is made up of a thin, vertical, undulating branch with scrolling leaves, colored with green and gray, and bundles of three rosettes, colored with two shades of purple and black, on a checked ground colored with two shades of green. The third design is made up of thin, interlacing branches with leaves, executed with bluish-gray and purple, with thin, scrolling branch offsets, colored with dark blue, and large, semi-abstract flowers, executed with black and shades of green, on a white ground with pairs of vertical stripes, colored with gray.
