The hand grips a long staff wrapped in red, green and yellow thread, topped with red flower blossoms. Gold rings are worn on the fingers. Behind is carved dark wooden latticework. The face is not shown. Only the arm, hand and torso are visible, so the seated person cannot be confirmed as a person from appearance.
