Stone Type
slate
Tympanum
urn, willow tree
Border
A three line border runs along the circumference of this stone. It is divided into two border lines; one very thick, one thin. The inside line forms the outer edge of the tablet section and it is etched into the stone's negative space. The outer edge of the tablet section uses eight lines to present seven borders hugging the circumference of the tablet. Only minimal information is provided on the plaque. It is bordered by an etched open book shape .
Remark
The tympanum has three design elements. The central image is a traditional willow tree over an urn. The artwork is finely detailed. The image is encircled by a double leaf wreath-frame. Below the frame is a mirror-imaged plant/wreath accentuating the framed images.
