The central pendant features carved figures of a deity seated within an arched shrine framed by mythical animal motifs, with a gold kalasha-shaped piece hanging below. A smaller carved gold pendant with a figure rests above. Dark red fabric is visible at the waist. The face is not visible.

Only the torso and jewellery are visible, with no face shown.2019-10-04Close crop of a man's chest and neck, showing only his chin and upper torso. He wears dense layers of rudraksha beads in reddish-brown and several heavy gold ceremonial necklaces. One gold necklace has a large central pendant with a cobra hood above, a shrine-like panel holding small deity figures, a lower kalasha-shaped element, and pearls and red stones set in the gold. Gold rudraksha-cluster beads alternate along the strands. The figure is a body adornment detail, not a face-visible portrait. Appearance cues are limited to the adornments, so the identity of this person is uncertain.2019-12-15January 19 20202020-01-19 +1 copiesClose-up photograph of ornate gold temple jewellery worn over many strands of rust-orange rudraksha beads.
