The image, beaten in high relief from a Single sheet of copper and coated with pure gold, depicts the deity seated in the lotus position on a lotus throne, his hands holding his attributes – the bell (ghanta) and the dorje (vajra) crossed at his breast. His face wears an introspective, serene expression.
