The first panel contains a guitar, a chupalla (a traditional cowboy hat), a pan flute, the Chilean flag, cowboy spurs, and a tied handkerchief. The second panel contains a banner with the word, Chile painted on it and several copihue (bellflowers that are the national flowers of Chile). The third panel has a traditionally dressed huaso (Chilean cowboy) riding a horse near a bull. The fourth panel has copihue, the Chilean bellflowers. The fifth panel has an enameled woman and man, dancing la cueca, the national dance of Chile, and are dressed in traditional dance finery. The woman is wearing a dress with an apron and the man is wearing a huaso’s sombrero hat, “flannel” pancho, riding pants, and boots. Both are waving white handkerchiefs and dancing above the painted enamel word, Chile. The sixth panel has the Chilean coat of arms with the huemul (an endangered deer) and the condor.
