A circular textile coil of linen and cork features vibrant blue rings interspersed with concentric bands of red, dark green, and black. Tight rows of material wrap around interior strips, creating a dense, ribbed texture that spirals toward a small, open center. A thin white fabric band secures the outer edge, terminating in a small folded tab at the bottom. The entire form is thin and flat.
