A dark stone deity murti, carved with a serene face and downcast eyes, wears a bright yellow turban with a jewelled ornament at the forehead. The figure is adorned with orange and yellow marigold and rose garlands, multiple strands of brown rudraksha malas, and a gold ornamental necklace set with green and red stones. Ornate gold and orange-red fabric drapes the lower body, and kumkum-coloured accents appear on the garland. Stylised carved hands rise on either side, and a yellow patterned cloth forms the backdrop. The statue is the sole figure in the frame.
