A female attendant stands with her legs crossed. Her left hand is on her waist, while her right holds a fly-whisk. She has an elaborate hairstyle. The girdle that surrounds her waist has a hanging detail. It is linked through with a fine chain, with a leaf-like ornament dangling from it. This ornament, known as the lalantika, is recognized as an iconographic feature at the Harshatmata Temple. The girdle that surrounds her waist has a hanging detail.
