Reverse description Highly detailed gilt relief depicting the Rose Window of Westminster Abbey, rendered as a radial design with figures of saints or angels arranged in concentric petal-like segments emanating from a central red enamel quatrefoil boss. The outer border is decorated with alternating red and blue enamel lozenge and circular motifs against a dark blue enamel band, replicating the Gothic tracery of the abbey's famous north transept rose window.
