Description from the seller

Beautiful bronze Tibetan ghanta with a classic vajra (dorje) handle and richly detailed relief decorations. The bell has a beautiful dark patina and an authentic appearance. The original clapper is present and provides a clear, full tone.

Traditionally used within Vajrayana Buddhism during ceremonies, but also very suitable as a powerful decorative collectible.
