The nightlight showcases the intricate portrayal of the fan-shaped serrated leaves of the Indian thistle, also known as Chardon indien. These gracefully curved leaves come together to create an elegant ogival pattern, a widely beloved design found in textiles across various cultures, including China, Mamluk Egypt, and the Ottoman Empire. This design eventually made its way to the Indian Kingdom of Amber, where it thrived and later spread to Western Europe during the British Raj era. The lower section of the nightlight is adorned with delicate fern fronds, each featuring a captivating ruby center.
