The floor has a geometric decoration consisting of a composition of large and small circles and other motifs. At the center of a large clypeus, limited by a black and white braid, stands a figurative motif. The mosaic presents two, the third has been lost, of the three Graces, which are depicted naked and embraced according to a scheme of Hellenistic ancestry, very common in the Roman world. The artifact, rich in color and chiaroscuro effects, is the only polychrome mosaic.
