The Abstract Design
For this design, the circles were removed from the side panels and replaced with an ornate and abstract decoration that is not quite mirrored in each side panel. The foreground bushes so prominent in the previous designs have been removed so that the building could be increased in size. Both phases of the Abstract Design are unique in the the initial phase represents more — and the final phase fewer — denominations than in any other design's phases.

Initial and Final Phases of the Abstract Design
The galvanized blocks used to produce the plates for the final phase of the Abstract Design were created from a wooden master. Thus, the 30h denomination is rougher in appearance than the initial phase stamps and is uniquely larger than any other Hradcany stamp.
Again, while classic Czechoslovak philately has no equivalent term for the Abstract Design, in Czech its initial phase is called the Pátá kresba and its final phase the Páta "a" kresba. While these designations do reflect the intimate relationship between the two phases and their distance from the other designs of the Hradčany issue, they do not speak to the essence of the design.
