The reverse is plain. The sticks are painted on the obverse with a chinoiserie scene of two figures in a landscape; the guards painted with floral motifs. Paper leaf decorated on one side with hand-coloured etching, the top edge reinforced with an adhered narrow plain paper border, on shaped, painted, and varnished elephant ivory sticks and guards. The edges of the sticks are carved to form a decorative pattern of alternating lines and zig-zags when closed. The sticks are united by a yellow metal (brass?) rivet with domed flat-topped ends separated from the sticks by two circular mother-of-pearl spacers.
