A photo taken from behind and above of a woman in a black top with a red-and-black checked wristwatch and a Sanskrit-style tattoo on her forearm, holding her open palm out with small white beads or grains resting on it. She wears a ring on one finger. In front of her, a wooden tray holds rows of small brass or gold-toned squares and gold folded paper pieces. Beside her, another person sits in an orange-and-gold silk sari with gold border, and a bright-pink floral print sleeve is visible at the right edge. Bangles and a red thread are visible on the wrist of the seated woman's hand at lower right.
