Detailed Description
A dark blue border with gold, swirling patterns frames an inner light brown border. The central image is a rectangular piece of light beige paper. Dominating the left and center of this paper is a large, light gray circular shape, resembling a full moon or a circular window. Within the upper left quadrant of this circle, a dark, gnarled branch extends downwards and to the right. The branch is adorned with numerous small, white blossoms, some with dark centers, and tiny dark buds. The branch appears to emerge from a textured, rocky formation in the upper left of the gray circle, rendered in darker gray tones with some black speckles. The right side of the beige paper is mostly empty except for a column of vertical black calligraphic text positioned towards the upper right. Below this text, a square red seal impression is visible.
