Two gilded metal murti statues of a deity couple seated side by side on a white cloth, heavily decorated for worship. The figure on the left wears an orange turban topped with a jeweled crown, a teal silk garment with gold brocade and a jeweled necklace, and holds a sceptre-like object. The figure on the right wears a tall jeweled crown, a teal sari-style silk with gold border, layered gold and gem necklaces, and holds a garland. Both are surrounded by yellow, red and white flower garlands and purple blooms against a maroon curtain. These are statues, not living people.
