Four beige scrolls with black and red Chinese calligraphy on a black background. The scrolls are arranged side by side and have a similar design. The top and bottom of each scroll have a narrow beige border. The scrolls are hanging from a thin beige string at the top. The calligraphy on the left scroll is mostly arranged vertically in black and red ink, with a few characters in a row at the bottom. The other three scrolls have similar calligraphy in black ink, arranged in rows. The calligraphy appears to be written in a traditional Chinese style. The background behind the scrolls is black.
