Adorned with a beautiful crown and jewellery, the deity is wearing knee-length boots, which confirms that the frontal face and body represent Surya, who is shown holding flowers in both his hands. While in his upper hands, one can notice sarpa (snakes) which is an attribute of Shiva, and the lower arms grasp a shankha (conch shell) and chakra (discus), symbols associated with Vishnu.
