A golden statue of a seated figure is the main subject, placed on a gilded lotus pedestal in front of a golden arch and magenta cloth backdrop. The figure wears a brown headdress with a jewelled ornament, a maroon and gold brocade garment with a green blouse, layered white and multicoloured bead necklaces, and a long rudraksha-like cord; it raises one hand in a blessing gesture. Marigold and purple garlands and white plumeria flowers adorn the statue. A brass kalasha, a small brass lamp and a brass bell sit on the pedestal, and a gold lamp stand flanks the base. A plaque on the right shows a smiling saffron-turbaned figure's portrait beside the caption KAILASA SALEM BHARATH. The statue is a depiction, so no physical people are present.
