The border tiles are glazed in blueish-green, of varying depth. The central tiles are painted in shades of cobalt blue on a white ground, the design covering both tiles and surrounded by a thin blue framing line and reserved white border. A young minstrel in medieval dress stands, barefoot, playing a harp. Behind are two tall, stylised, bushes bearing circular fruits. The minstrel walks on grass, dotted with clumps of primrose-like flowers.
