The wall behind the table is mostly vertical wood paneling, ending above the table at a small horizontal ledge, after which the wall is covered by a rough textile. Some decorative stitching is visible on the textile portion of the wall, forming a light circular shape with a stem towards the left edge of the photo while a stem with loose threads fanning out is stitched towards the right side of the wall.
