A decorated ritual staff stands upright on a grey stone ledge against a blurred reddish-brown background. It is wrapped in orange and green silk with gold-edged trim, and a brown rudraksha mala and strands of white and silver beads hang from a yellow-topped crown near its top. No people are visible; the object appears to be a ceremonial item such as a ritual flag or staff.
