T.A. r. or. Carved wooden capital nearly square in plan. Abacus consists of five members : a r" fillet above a r" inward chamfer with quirk between ; then a flat c. ", below which an outward chamfer, quirk and fillet similar to those above but reversed and slightly narrower. Below abacus and recessed about i", the sides fall in flat vertical planes 3r at corners. Thence they curve gently under into leaf forms of bell which forms the lower part of capital.

From the lowest point of each vertical corner to centre of each side the line, first swelling slightly downward, curves upward in a cyma, meeting in a point formed by the small downward curves of the upper ends of the two opposed cymas.

A pearl border carved f" within the edges on the flat faces bounded by cyma curves, lower fillet of abacus and

vertical angles of capital. The pearls follow vertical line and cyma curves, the part below fillet being plain.

Inverted bell of capital is shallow like a basin and is composed of eight petals, alternately broad and narrow. The four broad petals occur at corners. From bottom of basin' they flow upwards in basin form for a short distance and then bend sharply down and outward in a convex curve to meet lower large curves of the cymas. The intermediate narrow petals rise towards centre point of each side of capital and roll over below meeting point of cymas. They are deeply undercut like a pair of distended nostrils. Each of the eight petals has the appearance of having a second, slightly smaller petal superimposed upon it. Midribs project in strongly marked keels. Small recessed spaces separate petals from each other.

Under surface of capital is drilled with a 3f" wide hollow, 4" deep, to take shaft. Surface surrounding hollow, flat (part broken away) and about xi" wide. Cutting, bold and direct with no attempt at smoothing out chisel marks. Size s' Ii" x r' r" x (height) ro". Pl. xv.
