The object is a yellow fabric armor and helmet. The armor appears to be made of a thick, yellow fabric. It covers the torso, with a hood that covers the head and has earflaps. The armor features several dark symbols. On the lower front are two circular designs with a square inside and surrounded by leaf-like patterns. Above these are three Chinese characters. The background of the image is white, with a shadow cast by the armor on the left side.
