The deity wears an orange turban topped with white flowers, a trident rests against his shoulder, and he holds a rudraksha mala and a small cup in his hands. Layered gold and jewelled necklaces, garlands of white and yellow flowers, and a white dhoti with red border adorn the figure. A small bull-like carving stands to his left, and a kneeling dwarf figure holding a bowl overhead sits to his right. No living people are visible.2014-10-20 +1 copiesPhoto 11715226A metal deity murti stands on a pedestal, depicted with four arms, holding a small drum-like object in the upper left hand and a flame-like form in the upper right hand, with lower hands in gesture poses.
