The central figure wears an elaborate gold and red embroidered crown with tassels, a gold-and-white brocade robe, and layers of red and yellow marigold garlands, with ornate gold necklaces. The figure on the left wears a deep maroon turban, a maroon shawl, and a gold-beaded necklace with a garland. The figure on the right wears a tall gold-and-gem studded headdress, a red-and-orange sari-style garment, and a garland. All three have gold-tone masked faces and are adorned with flowers and jewelry.
