A red-faced deity murti is seated on a red cushioned peetha in front of an ornate gold arch, flanked by two banana trees with broad green leaves. The murti wears a silver crown, a white and gold garland, layered gold necklaces and a red sari with gold border, and is decorated with green-leaf adornments. In front, two small silver lamps burn with oil lamps, and two smaller idols dressed in white garlands and green-and-gold cloth sit on a wooden platform. On the left edge, a hand in green sari sleeve holds a small brass vessel.
