A rounded silk pouch features a stylized floral pattern in pale gold and muted green. Metallic threads create a textured weave of large peonies and leaves across the fabric. Small purple loops along the top edge secure a thick, bright orange braided cord forming a long loop. Tied to the left is a matching large orange tassel. The vibrant orange accents contrast with the bag's shimmering gold and green brocade.
