Each cast inkwell is embellished with details replicating the rim and shell of the drum. The counterhoop to the upper portion of the drum is ornamented with impressive applied lion mask designs supporting an interlacing twisted rope conjoined to the lower lion mask decorated tuning lugs. The anterior surface of each drum bears a cast and applied Royal coat of arms of the United Kingdom, bearing the motto 'Dieu et mon droit' - God and my right, all above details pertaining to the individual regiment.
