The pattern of the roundel consists of a boy holding a duck and surrounded by various animals and birds. The two bands enclose this in a right angle; they have a pattern of boys, hares, and birds separated by leafy sprigs. The lower band has a border of cresting along the top. Most of the purple wool has perished from the bands; that of the roundel has entirely disappeared, and a piece of dark stuff is now inserted underneath to define the pattern.
