Two gilded deity murti stand side by side before a green gold-brocaded backdrop framed by an ornate gold arch. The male figure wears an orange turban and orange-yellow garment with a maroon lower cloth, silver ornaments, a large silver necklace and red-and-white flower garlands, holding a trident-like staff in one raised hand. The female figure wears a turquoise blue sari with gold border, layered silver necklaces, a jewelled silver crown and matching garlands, holding a small object in one hand. Both are seated on a pink satin draped pedestal. This is a statue, not living people.
