Seated in dhyanasana on a double lotus base, the eight arms held in various mudras, wearing a shawl and dhoti hemmed with floral scrolls, its loose folds falling over the crossed-legs, with a billowing celestial scarf draped around the arms, adorned in layered chains of jewelry, the three faces in meditative expression with eyes cast down, framed by large floral earrings, crowned by jewelled tiaras surrounding a high chignon.

尊勝佛母，又稱“頂髻尊勝佛母”。佛母在兜率天說法時，以“陀羅尼”經 咒救度王子，因此尊勝佛母有救度之功。尊勝佛母的巨大影響力體現在兩方面： 一是它的陀羅尼經咒廣泛流傳，被認爲具有防災的功能，所以在寺廟或寺院前的 經幢頂上所刻幾乎均是此尊的咒語，在皇家陵墓地宮、貴族死者的經被上也採用 此咒；另外，她也被看作是壽神，與無量壽佛和白度母共同組成“長壽三尊”的 著名組合廣爲人知。佛母三面八臂，每面三目，微露笑意，結跏趺安坐。面容慈祥，頭戴寶冠， 耳下墜耳鐺，八臂位置、手勢各異，左上方手托阿彌陀佛，胸前手捧甘露壽瓶， 肢體描繪富於動感，優雅寫實。身形健美，腰肢纖細，具有女性的獨特撫媚。項 圈、瓔珞、手鐲、臂釧、腰帶等飾物一應俱全，製作極爲精細。上身袒露，下著 薄裙，衣紋流暢自然，充滿輕柔質感。蓮瓣寬扁，蓮尖卷翹，藝術性極高。整尊造像鎏金濃鬱，用材考究，工藝精湛，造型比例精準，並保留了原封底，愈顯珍 貴。
