Each of the sub-divisions B, is provided with ribs or ridges b, which cross each other at the center of the sub-division B, and connect the opposite angles thereof. The sub-divisions 1 and 1 are each sub-divided into four equal parts by parallel ribs or ridges a, and parallel ribs or ridges a crossing the ribs (1, and arranged at right angles thereto. Each of the sub-divisions B, is provided with arc-shaped ribs or ridges c,connecting the angles of the sub-divisions and each having the same radius. At the junctions of the ribs a a, in all the

parts

1, 2, 3 and 4, there is formed a rosette or a circular projection D.

The essential feature of our design isa metallic finishing plate divided into four equal parts, the two parts diagonally opposite each other being similarly ornamented, two of said parts having straight, parallel ribs intersected by other such ribs, and each sub-division in these parts having ribs crossing each other and connecting the diagonally opposite angles of each sub-division, the other two parts of the plate having the sub-divisions each provided with four arc-shaped ribs or ridges connecting the four angles thereof.
