Row [2] has a light blue vertical cartouche like the cartouche in row [1] but in different colours alternating with a blue pointed square containing a light yellow star. Black lines from the corner of this pointed square join the corners of the dark blue or red stars. The border has a very pale grey ground with a lobed diamond in yellow alternating with a lobed cartouche in pink.
Facing: bias-cut dark blue silk with a fine light blue irregular check.
Backing: pieced; green satin.
