The front tray holds flat square plates engraved with yantra designs and small triangular pieces, some with concentric geometric patterns. Another tray holds a folded red cloth and stacked flat metal plates. A top tray contains many small brass cylindrical rods, and a carved wooden stand with ornate gold-toned panels is visible at the right edge. No people are visible.
