A circular satin hat features subtle woven dragon patterns on bright gold damask. At the center, a raised red fabric rosette sits within twelve radiating blue embroidered loops. A blue geometric symbol rests below against the gold background. Fine vertical stitching lines radiate from the center to a dark brown outer rim, creating a symmetrical composition from a top-down view.
