Two variations of a design for a ceiling decoration, each only showing half of the ceiling. On the left is a floral and scrollwork border around the edges and in the centre is a greek key pattern with more scrollwork on the outside of it, and a floral motif in the centre. On the right there is foliated scrollwork decoration in the corner, with the centre featuring a greek key pattern in what would be an octagonal section. The central section is similar to the left side but with a dotted design instead of the greek key.
