A light grey stone relief panel is centered on a building facade in North Jakarta, Indonesia. The rectangular panel, framed by a slightly raised border, features an intricate, three-dimensional carving of traditional auspicious symbols. In the upper left, a scaled, mythical creature resembling a dragon or Qilin stands on its hind legs, head raised with an open mouth, positioned on a cloud-like base. To the right of the creature, a branch with multiple blooming flowers extends. Two tiered, ornate vessels, possibly lanterns or ritual objects, are depicted in the upper-middle right. Below the creature, a complex arrangement of stylized geometric patterns and cloud motifs incorporates two circular symbols, one resembling the Chinese character for "double happiness," and another with a cross-like pattern. A large, diagonally positioned object with a quilted texture, possibly a ceremonial mat or blanket, occupies the lower right, with a stylized sword or scepter laid across it. The main relief is bordered by polished reddish-brown granite panels on its left and right, and a similar scrollwork frieze is visible above it. Strong shadows are cast from the raised elements, indicating illumination from the upper right.
