Three long, slender fish with gray scales and pointed snouts are depicted swimming around a branch. The fish have large eyes and forked tails. Two fish are positioned in front and one behind, with the front two overlapping. A branch with sparse leaves and a few small buds extends from the bottom-left to the center. The background is a light beige color with a thin gold border around the edges. There are several lines of Japanese text written vertically on the right side, accompanied by two small red stamps.
