A golden deity murti seated cross-legged, adorned with a tall gold crown set with red and green gems, a red silk blouse heavily embellished with stone work, and green silk dhoti with gold borders. Garlands of marigolds, roses, jasmine and purple flowers in yellow, red, white and purple frame the figure against a green draped backdrop and a gilded arch. The murti holds a raised hand with a flower and a second hand resting on the lap, with jeweled anklets visible at the feet. No physical people are visible, and the murti is not a depiction of a person.
