Upper surface: on the upper half of the panel, a mosque structure flanked by minarets is framed within a pointed archway whose spandrels contain a scrolling floral pattern and vases reserved in blue. On the lower half of the panel two floral sprays, springing from mounted vases and incorporating mandorlas (oval medallions), are framed within a colonnade topped by lobed archways, whose spandrels again contain scrolling floral patterns reserved in blue. Two of the tiles, on the fourth row far right and on the tenth row extreme left, do not belong in the panel but must have been inserted to replace missing examples.
