There are 3 pieces of jewelry in the frame: one brooch and two bracelets that are designed the same way. The brooch is in the shape of an 'X', yellow in color, and appears to have a soft, crushed velvet-like exterior. It is medium/large in size. The two bracelets are circular in shape, one fuchsia and the other orange, with a total of 5 spherical protrusions evenly spaced out, along the bracelets soft exterior. These spherical protrusions are not the same material as the bracelet, in fact, they are made of a metal substance. A metal sliver on two opposing sides of the bracelet, cuts it in half; however, both halves remain together in one piece.
