AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Beautiful incense burner Ashtamangala’s.
Ashtamangala (Eight Auspicious Symbols) The decorative band on the lid shows the Ashtamangala - the eight sacred symbols from Tibetan Buddhism that represent happiness, prosperity and spiritual protection.
These include, among others, the endless knot, the lotus bloom, the parasol and the dharma wheel.
Dragons symbolism:
The dragons coiled around the body of the burner are powerful protectors in the Tibetan tradition.
They symbolize wisdom, strength and mastery over the elements.
The double dragon is often associated with harmony and balance.
Lid elements:
Two deer/gazelles: Refer to the first teaching of the Buddha in the Deer Park at Sarnath
Central finial: Often a jewel or dharma symbol representing enlightenment
Pierced decoration: Allow the incense to escape through the symbolic motifs
Function This is a ding (鼎) - a ritual burner used in temples and on altars for incense ceremonies, where the smoke carries offerings to the heavens and purifies the space.
The incense burner is in good used condition with signs of aging. (See photos)
