There are three ribbon-like objects positioned vertically side by side. Each has a cross design in the center. The largest object is the ribbon in the middle, which is lavender in color, followed by the one on the right, which is red, and the smallest on the left, which is black. The black ribbon has frayed edges at the top and bottom, while the red ribbon has pointed ends. The crosses are decorated with circular patterns. The color palette mainly consists of black, lavender, and red with some black detailing.
