Two metal deity murtis stand in an ornate gilded shrine niche before green sequined curtains. The central figure, with a silver trident and a crown-like headdress, wears an orange cloth and a white pearl-beaded garland. The figure on the right has a jeweled crown, a heavy gold and gemstone necklace, and holds a silver staff. Both are adorned with yellow and white flower garlands and red blossoms, and the setting suggests a temple darshan display.
