Jambhala is the God of Wealth and can always be recognized by his big belly and the mongoose he is holding in his left arm on his knee. The mongoose spits jewels when he squeezes its neck. The right hand usually holds a citrus fruit symbolizing wealth. He is wearing jewellery like necklaces, earrings and armlets, a crown on his head. His face is very welcoming with a smile.
