Description from the seller

Antique Tibetan Altar

With lotus throne and Mandorla.
Nepalese/Tibetan cultural area, gilded bronze, 19th/20th century.

Amazing details and very precise carvings on all 3 sides on the front.
Intricate carvings of figures and symbols common in Buddhist iconography, such as makara faces at the base and a garuda face at the top.
The arch is bordered by flame motifs and includes small seated figures within the structure.
The central bowl suggests it might also function as an incense burner

A super beautifull piece of artistry
