The two figures are golden-complexioned with ornate silver and red jewellery, rudraksha-style beads, and a trident held in one hand; one wears a red and green turban with a crown, the other a dark cap, and both are in orange and purple silk. The murtis are framed by large garlands of yellow marigolds, purple and red flowers, and green leaves, with a brass lamp stand at left.
