There are six fully and one partially visible circular patterns. The patterns are made up of intricate, swirling shapes that resemble paisley or floral motifs. The circles are arranged in three rows, with two on the top and bottom rows and three on the middle row. The background of the image is a light gray color, possibly a woven texture.
