His body is richly decorated with beaded necklaces, armbands, and flowing robes featuring intricate engraved patterns, all accented with numerous turquoise and red cabochon stones. The sculpture is extensively gilded, retaining a bright, warm gold luster. A red-painted halo is attached to the back of the figure.
