The figure features a serene, meditative expression with downcast eyes, a raised right hand in the Abhaya mudra (gesture of fearlessness), and a left hand resting gently by the side. The hair is styled in traditional coils with a prominent ushnisha, accented by a small red dot on the forehead. The flowing robes are finely carved with deep, graceful folds, draping elegantly over the body down to the bare feet. The figure stands on a carved, lotus-petal base. The piece has a warm, honey-colored patina with darker detailing in the crevices, enhancing the depth of the carving.
