In general, the manuscript (the text, decorations, and parchments) is well preserved.
It seems the opening decoration is not complete and lacks its part on the right-hand side.
The final part of the decoration (on the left side of the last panel) is a later addition to the scroll.

Columns of text nos. 10-13 are surrounded by hand-painted floral decorations. The scenes (nos. 10-13) in the lower margins illustrate:

11. A man is seated on a chair and another man is standing in front of him - possibly Haman before the king while talking about a reward for the one who the king wishes to reward (Es. 6:5-10).
12. A couple.
13. A city.
