AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Splendid set of 3 ritual apotropaic amulets from Tibetan and Nepalese tradition.

Made in a metal alloy casting (patinated bronze/brass) depicting ritual masks and protective skulls (inspired by the symbolism of Mahakala and wrathful tantric deities), enriched with traditional silk brocade inserts, tassels and decorative details.
Traditionally used for purifying spaces, dissipating negative energies, protection against the evil eye, spiritual obstacles and nefarious influences.

1. Ritual Amulet with Trident (Trishula) and Protective Skull
The trident symbolizes the destruction of the three poisons of the soul (greed, anger, ignorance). This amulet is used to protect the home or the owner from spiritual obstacles, malicious influences and external negative energies.

2. Amulet of the Wrathful Mask / Skull with Red Eyes and Red Brocade
Represents a wrathful protective deity (Dharmapala/Mahakala). Its fierce expression serves to frighten away and dissolve negativity, the evil eye, envy and emotional or physical interference.

3. Bronze Worry-Dispersing Amulet with Green and Gold Brocade
Used as a wall- or ceiling-hung amulet to purify spaces, absorb the negative vibrations of the place and protect the residents from misfortune and illness.

It will be shipped well-packed and with a trackable courier.
