Some bands display floral patterns with leaves and flowers, while others showcase curvilinear designs and animal motifs. The top band features orange flowers on a gold background with green leaves and brown floral patterns. The second band has a blue ground with gold and orange patterns. The third band consists of a solid brown section with an orange curvilinear design above and below.
