Right hand part of a decorated board, where the plant composition is inscribed in a geometrical composition. The frame has on the underside two lobes with slight curvature. The main decorative motif is the arabesque, which generates circular compositions of two turns from the main shoot plus secondary branches. These end in digitate bipartite leaves that complement the circular composition and surround the fruits that also emerge from the main trunk and were defined as pomegranates by Ch. Ewert. Other secondary elements complete the composition, such as unilobate leaves or scroll-shaped lobes arising from the main shoot.
