An array substrate includes an almost rectangular effective portion which
is formed on the major surface of the substrate and includes a plurality
of pixels for displaying images. An organic EL display device includes a
sealer which is placed to cover at least the effective portion on the
major surface of the array substrate. The sealer has a structure in which
at least two almost rectangular buffer layers which have substantially
the same pattern and barrier layers each of which is a pattern larger
than each buffer layer and covers each buffer layer to shield it from the
open air are stacked on each other. The shortest distance from one side
of an end of the effective portion to one side of an end of the first
buffer layer is different from the shortest distance to one side of an
end of the second buffer layer.
