The scene displays a vertically oriented, meticulously beaded ceremonial object situated in the city of Ikate, Nigeria. The primary object features an elongated, shield-like shape, predominantly covered in small beads. A central field of dark blue beads forms the background for five stylized, bipedal lizard or gecko-like figures. These figures are rendered with alternating sections of red and white beads, each featuring small blue bead "eyes" and contrasting red, white, or yellow beaded limbs and tails. The blue field is bordered by segments of light green beads, delineated by single rows of yellow beads, forming a patterned edge. The overall perimeter of the main object is finished with a neutral-colored fabric trim. At the lower edges, partially visible, are additional scalloped or wing-shaped beaded elements displaying striped patterns of light and dark blue, also edged with yellow beads. The background appears to be an indoor setting with subtle, blurred textures suggestive of other artifacts or decorative elements.
