The left and right designs are symmetrical and similar, featuring triangular shapes. The center design features a smaller geometric pattern. Vertical black lines separate the sections. The anklet has brown stringing on the sides, with a red bead on the end of the string on the left side. The background is gray, transitioning from dark at the top to light at the bottom.
