Three deity murtis stand together in an ornate golden shrine with a green drape behind them. The central murti wears a tall jeweled crown, an orange-and-red silk garment with a gold border, a long beaded garland, and holds a staff and a gold ritual object. Two flanking murtis on either side wear pointed jeweled headdresses, green and red silk garments, and layered sparkling necklaces.
