A gilded metal statue of a deity stands against a pale lavender draped curtain. The murti wears a tall gold crown with a hooded cobra hood rising behind it, a red dot on the forehead, and a maroon and gold cloth draped over the shoulders. Multiple strands of white beaded garlands hang across the chest. In one hand it holds a golden trident (trishul) and in another a small ornate ritual implement, with a small lamp visible near the lower right. Behind the statue are rows of golden pointed objects. No physical people are visible.
