The figure on the right wears a black and white crown, a red and white sari with a purple blouse, and layered pearl and silver necklaces with earrings.

The male figure wears a red-orange turban with a vertical tilak and holds a golden trident aloft, with a rudraksha mala and gold necklaces over red robes. The female figure wears a tall ornate crown, red robes, gem-set jewelry, and holds a small green parrot on her raised hand. Their hands and garments are decorated with white and green stone inlay.
