A decorated deity murti of Devi Meenakshi seated on a throne framed by floral garlands in red, yellow, white and green, with tasselled hangings in multiple colours at either side. The figure wears a royal blue embroidered blouse, a pink sari, an elaborate jewelled crown and a green and orange sash, and holds a golden staff. Two green-and-red parrot ornaments rest near the top of the arch, and a silver vessel with a lit oil lamp is held at left by a hand. Brass bells hang above, against an orange draped backdrop. The image shows abhishekam-related temple decoration, with the figure as a murti rather than a living person.
