Art Deco Candle Staircase Menu Border
Eight ivory candles rise in steps up a brass staircase; the art takes only the left edge, the rest is left for menu text.
✍️ The trouble is the transparent background: models often paint the checkerboard in. The author blocks it with three layers of negation, alpha = 0, not white, no checkerboard, then marks the middle and right as a safe zone, so the menu is actually usable.

Decorative border artwork, tall 9:16, on a genuinely transparent background (real alpha channel, alpha = 0 at every edge; not white, not tinted, no checkerboard). Everything lives on the left edge: a Neo-Art-Deco candle staircase rising from the lower left to the upper left, made of eight slender bone-white taper candles, each on a small engraved brass step plinth, stepping up in height from the shortest at the base to the tallest at the top so the outline reads as a theatrical stair. A small warm brass teardrop flame tops every wick. The candle bodies alternate deep oxblood and midnight plum with clean bone accents; the plinths are aged brass with fine engraved deco fan and chevron line work over oxblood and midnight plum, plus a restrained simulated metallic-foil sheen. Keep strokes bold and legible, with no hairlines that would disappear. Leave the center and the right two thirds of the frame entirely empty and transparent as a safe area for menu text. The whole graphic floats inside the frame with generous transparent margin all round, touching no edge and cropped by nothing. No text, lettering or numbers anywhere. Flat art-deco illustration: crisp geometric edges, flat color fills, engraved detailing.
