This small, trapezoid, Tibetan chest has been hand made and painted at our workshop in Nepal by skilled artisans specializing in woodwork. It is ideal for use as a decorative piece or jewellery box. This chest contains traditional Tibetan motifs featuring the mystical snow lion, lotus and cloud.
The snow lion was the emblem of ancient Tibet, representing the pure lands of snow (Tibet). It symbolises power, strength and resilience of the people that live in these regions. It is also found in the thrones of high lamas to represent courage and the absence of any doubt.
The lotus holds great importance in Buddhist philosophy and signifies one's ability to rise above the murk and achieve enlightenment. The lotus is also the pedestal that many Buddhist deities are seated on.
This chest is perfect for adding some colour to home. It can also be used as a spiritual safe to hold your most precious dharma items and precious documents, memories and jewellery.
Size: 26 (length) x 13 (width) x 15 cms (high) when measured at the base.
