AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Beautiful solid silver amulet/pendant from the Himalaya region (Tibet/Nepal). In the center the face of Buddha, made from traditional cinnabar paste. The (tested) silver rim around it features deep repoussé workmanship full of Buddhist symbolism. The hares on the sides stand for selflessness and sacrifice, the fish at the bottom are symbols of luck that stand for fearlessness, freedom, and happiness in life. The back shows a beautifully stylized lotus flower, surrounded by cloud- and flame-motifs. The lotus flower represents spiritual purity and enlightenment.
At the top the hanging eye.
Condition: good vintage condition.
This lot will be carefully packed and insured shipped with track and trace.
