Three brooches are displayed vertically in the center of a plain beige background. Each brooch features an eagle with outspread wings and stars. The largest brooch at the top displays an eagle with full wings in dark metal, flanked by two stars, creating a brown to dark brown color scheme. The middle brooch, slightly smaller, showcases an eagle with wings on either side in a similar brownish hue. The bottom brooch mirrors the design of the top brooch with an eagle and stars, maintaining the dark metallic color theme. The brooches are arranged in a vertical line in the center of the image.
