Dark blue fabric with gold dragon design. The dragon faces right and has a large head, small eyes, and a distinctive snout. Its body winds across the fabric, with four claws on its lower body visible. The dragon's tail has a club-like end and curves up towards the top-right corner. Its scales, flames, and mane are depicted in gold, while two small white lines are on the left side of the body. The fabric has a rough texture, appears old, and has a white border with faint writing at the bottom.
