A circular linen and cork textile features a tight, flat coil wrapped in vibrant red, blue, and green threads. Solid rings of intense red dominate the center around a small hollow core. Moving outward, segments of cool blue and earthy green alternate with the red to create broken concentric rings. A thin white band wraps the exterior edge, containing the multi-colored spiral and providing a crisp border to the thick disk.
