Many small silver bowls hold white milk-like liquid, honey-coloured liquid, flower petals, and dark sweet offerings, with silver spoons resting in some. Fresh white, yellow and pink flowers and green leaves are arranged in the centre, with a small silver figurine or lamp among them. The bowls appear to be prepared offerings for a puja or abhishekam; no people are visible.
