In Tibetan Buddhism, ghee (clarified butter) is one of the most important offerings. It's used to fuel butter lamps, whose light stands for wisdom pushing back darkness, and it's placed on the altar as a sign of devotion. Bowls that held these offerings were made with care, often decorated with amber and turquoise. Both stones have long been treasured in Tibet as symbols of protection and good fortune.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"mt-4 first:mt-0\"\u003eThis bowl has been used for an unknown length of time, and its soft patina and gentle wear reflect years of service. Honey-toned amber and blue-green turquoise are set into the silver-tone metal, giving it the warm, colorful look of classic Himalayan metalwork. At about 6 cm (2.4 in) tall and 13 cm (5.1 in) long, it fits easily on a home altar, meditation shelf, study or curio cabinet. It pairs naturally with the Vintage Tibetan Temple Teapot for a small temple display, and it's a meaningful find for collectors of Himalayan art.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"mt-4 first:mt-0\"\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"font-medium text-foreground\"\u003eProduct details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"list-disc space-y-0.5 mt-2 mb-5 [\u0026amp;_ul]:my-0 last:mb-0 [\u0026amp;\u0026gt;li]:ml-4 [\u0026amp;\u0026gt;li]:my-2 [\u0026amp;_ul\u0026gt;li]:ml-4 [\u0026amp;_ul\u0026gt;li]:my-1 [\u0026amp;_ul]:list-[circle] [\u0026amp;_ul_ul]:list-[square]\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"leading-relaxed\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong class=\"font-medium text-foreground\"\u003eProvenance:\u003c\/strong\u003e From a collection of Tibetan temple objects\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"leading-relaxed\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong class=\"font-medium text-foreground\"\u003eAge:\u003c\/strong\u003e Likely vintage, exact age unknown\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"leading-relaxed\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong class=\"font-medium text-foreground\"\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pre-owned, good condition with natural wear and patina from use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"leading-relaxed\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong class=\"font-medium text-foreground\"\u003eMaterials:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tibetan silver (white-metal alloy), beeswax-style amber and turquoise inlay\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"leading-relaxed\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong class=\"font-medium text-foreground\"\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e About 6 cm (2.4 in) tall × 13 cm (5.1 in) long\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"leading-relaxed\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong class=\"font-medium text-foreground\"\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e About 0.5 kg (1.1 lb) including packaging\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"leading-relaxed\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong class=\"font-medium text-foreground\"\u003eUse:\u003c\/strong\u003e Decorative display only; not for food or drink\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"leading-relaxed\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong class=\"font-medium text-foreground\"\u003ePackage includes:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 × vintage offering bowl (one of a kind; the item pictured is the item you'll receive)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/ae01.alicdn.com\/kf\/S087e01c7ea0e478a930b4c4d87bb09ad4.jpg\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/ae01.alicdn.com\/kf\/Sfe081dddbadd4ed1a8da4d1318cde5581.jpg\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/ae01.alicdn.com\/kf\/S039526e4731d4b4a8c0bf28aca3bfd501.jpg\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/ae01.alicdn.com\/kf\/S057956eba2d7483f9acca41a76fd6b8fF.jpg\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/ae01.alicdn.com\/kf\/S51e6e64721504d5a826818034deaeb91U.jpg\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/ae01.alicdn.com\/kf\/S46acf78fe12149c5830e791ef948b1deB.jpg\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/ae01.alicdn.com\/kf\/S4447c7a829534281b7c8d046cf985e4e9.jpg\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/ae01.alicdn.com\/kf\/S45788730790a4c54a43cb22cd73ac335Q.jpg\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/ae01.alicdn.com\/kf\/Sb0c6f6316a114df58abd37ac4a273a64Z.jpg\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Far East Finds","offers":[{"title":"Variant","offer_id":49043861012617,"sku":"12000056032641615","price":209.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0711\/9257\/6137\/files\/ae9f6f489a7a45b4b400e26db3add0eb.webp?v=1794730701","url":"https:\/\/fareastfinds.com\/de\/products\/vintage-tibetan-temple-ghee-offering-bowl","provider":"Far East Finds","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
