The male figure wears a red and gold turban and a heavy ornamented necklace and holds a golden staff, while the female figure wears a pink and gold sari with a crown and jewelry.

At the lower front, a small framed portrait of a man with long hair and saffron clothing rests on a golden base, and a small figure in green stands to the right. A ceremonial shrine with deity murtis rather than living people.
