Watercolor and pencil drawing of a floral pattern. The pattern consists of nine large, white, realistic, radially symmetrical flowers, on a blue background with golden brown stems and leaves and four identical, evenly spaced, stylized, round, brown medallions containing smaller white flowers that look like simplified cherry blossom. While the large flowers and leaves look realistic, the veins on some of the leaves are stylized with geometric patterns formed by a continuous line that remind of a Greek key pattern. The large flowers have five large white petals each, with brown nectar guides and a complex, circular structure in the center so that stigma and stamens are not clearly visible. The drawing is on a square with wider lateral margins. In the center of the drawing, there is a subtly penciled 50x50 grid of identical squares, numbered 1 to 50 along each of the four sides and in the middle of the grid. The pattern is such that it can be repeated, like in a block print, because the lines at opposite margins match and complete each other.

This necklace is made up of eight distinct pieces, each of a different color. All of the pieces are amorphous in shape except for the one on the bottom, which is pale green and made to look like a cluster of three leaves. Five of the designs are of unidentifiable media. Of the remaining three, one is wood, one is metal and one is a dark brown carved nut or seed. The pearls attached to the end of each piece separate the elements and hold the necklace together.
