A geometric design appears close to the centre of the ceiling in Room VII. It consists of two circles connected by a band. The right circle is enclosed by wavy-line circle. Within it there are lines, zig-zag patterns and three circles in the center. The left circle is decorated by six-petalled rosette. The space between the petals is filled by varios geometric $$9motifs, mainly triangles. The band conecting the circles consists of three parallel lines enclosing zig-zag lines. Three long parallel lines run perpendicular to the band.
