A small bronze-toned statue of a standing figure stands on a square pedestal at the centre of a home altar draped in a red and gold patterned cloth. The statue wears a maroon wrap, a maroon and orange turban with a pink flower, a jewelled gold waist belt and a beaded necklace, with one hand raised in blessing. Yellow chrysanthemums in a brown paper pot sit to the left, a red hexagonal candle holder with a trident motif holds a white candle, and two terracotta lamp stands with om symbols hold small oil lamps on the right. Pink petals lie scattered at the base of the statue. A white paper sign behind the altar reads KAILASA and partly LOUIS. The statue is a depiction, not a person, and no people are visible.
