A circular dome-shaped button of gold-toned metal and black enamel features dozens of small, rounded light blue stones in raised mounts. These stones cluster most densely at the center, while others scatter toward the outer edges. Swirling gold lines and black enamel fill the spaces between the stones. The varying heights of the mounts and stones create a highly textured, uneven surface against the dark background.
