Two long metal trays filled with fine white grain or rice and dark red-brown powder, with dark grey stone or clay lingams and small shapes set into the grain. A hand in the upper left holds a silver tray with a small brass cup, a bowl of yellow turmeric and a small lamp. A beaded red-and-black wrist band is visible on the wrist. Brass bowls of grain sit at each side and a yellow wall with a red brick dado forms the backdrop. No faces are visible, so no person can be identified.
