Description
Tibetan Gau Reliquary
This Gau amulet box and portable reliquary features a traditional ogival shape, evoking the silhouette of a Buddhist temple or niche. Its silver-coloured metal front is richly embossed and engraved with sacred motifs, notably the eight auspicious symbols (Ashtamangala) surrounding three small glass-paned windows designed to offer a glimpse of the sacred relics or statuettes (tsa-tsa).
23 x 20 x 7 cm
