Base Panels
The base of the wall niches consists of three horizontal moldings. The topmost has a flower-and-chain decoration framed by beads. At the centre is an eave-shaped molding with gavaksas containing flowers. Below this the square ends of 'rafters' have geese and mermaids with foliated tails and monster masks at the ends.
