Blues and yellows frame the sunken text area in this very geometric design executed to bring the Renaissance to mind. The area for the text was cut out and another piece placed in its stead to give a three-dimensional effect. At the base one sees the first three Hebrew words from the 2nd Song of Solomon: "Like a lily among thorns ..." with the amulet acronym "You are the world's hero, O Lord" in the other triangle. Norman strategically placed a flower through the word "Bride" in the seventh wedding blessing in the crown to set off the symmetry.
