On the table are rudraksha and gold-bead malas, loose beads, pliers, scissors, a spool of thread and small plastic containers. The man on the left wears a reddish-maroon dhoti and matching wrap with gold-coloured bands, a rudraksha mala, and is pointing toward the beads with his right hand. The bearded man beside him wears saffron-orange robes and a saffron head covering, a rudraksha mala, a red tilak on his forehead, and holds a wooden staff upright. Behind them, a man in white dhoti stands at a doorway, and a partially visible figure at right wears a maroon garment with gold bands. A banner partly reading 'Jewellery Division' hangs on the wall behind.
