content: Design for the embroidery of the left bottom part of a man's waistcoat. Lilac edges. A rose bough, two fantastical flower boughs, and two leaves carrying blossoms decorate the flap of the pocket. Similar motifs decorate the field, the leaf motifs forming festoons beneath the pocket. Seeds are shown instead of blossoms in the central one.
