The photo is a round, light-colored pinewood coaster (TEMU) sitting on the black honeycomb bed of a laser engraver (the hexagonal grid is the typical crumb-tray/honeycomb panel used inside enclosed 10W diode lasers like the xTool M2). The coaster itself is a custom drink coaster with:
A thin circular border line framing the whole design. "Southern" in an elegant flowing script, paired with "SOIRÉES" in a wide-spaced serif caps font, and a faint "BLUE RIDGE" subtitle beneath it. A photorealistic grayscale scene at the bottom layered Blue Ridge–style mountain silhouettes fading into the distance, surrounded by a spray of dogwood blossoms and small clustered white flowers with detailed leaves
The visible wood grain streaks (light tan with darker striping) are typical of pine, and the burn tones range from light golden-brown (the mountains/background) to near-black (the text and flower outlines). You may want to consider 2 passes for a bit darker/deeper.
