Design for a round, geometric pattern made up out of two intricate, interlacing polygonal figures and two circles. The larger circle forms the frame of the figure. The smaller circle forms its center. The border in between is filled by two polygonal figures, made up out of straps, which follow the circular shape and each have four protruding blunt rays. Their overlapping and interlacing straps create the impression of a stylized sun.
