Golden shrine arch framing a large gilded and painted murti of a seated deity couple against a red velvet backdrop. The male deity wears a red turban and crown, a blue dhoti-style lower garment, layered silver jewelled necklaces and holds a trident, with a damaru-like hand object. The female deity wears a red and orange sari, silver necklaces and a dark headdress with crown ornament. Between them, a tall silver shivalinga-like object is garlanded with marigolds and yellow flowers. Below, a small seated figure in saffron robes with a rudraksha mala sits in front of brass oil lamps and puja vessels.
