Description:
Garland Band 07 is characterized by an undulating line that forms a stylized “stem” with alternating flower elements that extend from it. Two green leaves extend from it, alternating with three small blue circular “blooms.” A solid line bisects the garland horizontally. Both this line as well as the garland are regularly interrupted with a blue X. A “starburst” element is also part of the element; its exact placement is not clear.
Stylistic Genre:
The genre for this stylistic element depends on a combination of decorative technique, color, and element.
