The frieze showcases three panels featuring three deities. In the central and largest panel, Vishnu is depicted in a lalitasana posture, accompanied by his attendants. His hands are broken. On the right side of the panel, Sridevi is portrayed holding a lotus, which is broken in her left hand. She is accompanied by two attendants. On the left side panel, Bhudevi is shown holding a lotus in her right hand, also accompanied by two attendants. The deities are adorned with jewellery, although much of it has been worn away. The intricate carvings indicate that this piece likely belongs to the pre-Vijayanagara period. The upper and lower projections of the panel feature creeper designs, while small figures carved on them possibly depict dancing scenes.
