Great tibetan Amulet Gau Ghau Nepal Silver Coral + Turquoise Lotus Flower

Description

Beautiful Tibetan GAU made of silver
An extremely rare handcrafted piece!
I bought the amulet from a Tibetan who lives in exile in Nepal.
The Tibetan amulet can be opened at the back like a small box. Tibetans wear the so-called Gaus around their necks. Religious charms and medicinal herbs are kept in them. They are also often used as "portable shrines".
The beautiful pendant is made of a silver mixture, which was made from old coins. The Gau has the shape of a lotus flower and is studded with many turquoise and corals. Turquoise and coral are the traditional Tibetan stones found in most Tibetan jewelry.
Dimensions: 6.0 cm high, 4.0 cm wide, 1.7 cm thick
