A photograph of a pair of ornate gold padukas, sandal-shaped footwear for a deity, resting on a brown and black leopard-print cloth on a stainless steel surface. The gold sandals are heavily engraved with leaf and floral patterns and set with red stones, and a gold crown-like arch with peacock motifs rises above them. Two gold kalasha-shaped knobs sit at the top of each sole. Fresh white jasmine buds and green stems are scattered across the sandals. No people are visible; this is a deity murti ritual setting for padapuja.
