The central feature is an oval shape formed by multiple strands of small red beads. This oval is surrounded and accented by concentric rings and patterns of white/off-white circular buttons of various sizes, some plain and others mother-of-pearl or shell—and interspersed with larger, irregularly shaped pale drilled bone pendants, teeth, or small animal parts (droplet/teardrop shapes with holes, often called "hairpipe" beads or tooth pendants in certain traditions).
