What can you give for up to CHF 100 from the Tibetan tradition?
Between CHF 50 and CHF 100 a world of possibilities opens up. In this price range you find Tibetan pieces that are not only beautiful but really stay. Objects that are used for years, that develop a patina over time and that remind the person you give them to, every day, of the moment they received them. That is the measure of a good gift: not how it looks when unwrapped, but how it looks a year later.
Singing bowls in this price range make a notable gift for people with a meditation practice or an interest in sound work. A hand-hammered singing bowl from the Himalayas, with striker and cushion, is a complete set that can be used straight away. The sound of a genuine seven-metal bowl is distinctive and does not tire.
Tibetan statues in this price range offer a good selection of Buddha, Tara and other deities in smaller sizes. A handmade bronze Tara statue, iconographically correct and carefully finished, is a gift of lasting value. For the altar, the desk or the living room.
Silver jewellery with gemstones such as turquoise, lapis lazuli or coral is made with visible care in this price range. Necklaces, bracelets and pendants with Tibetan symbols and genuine stones are pieces you wear for years.
Silk brocade accessories such as bags, purses or laptop cases also work well in this price range. Practical, colourful and distinctively Tibetan in their elegance.
At tibet-markets.ch you will find a carefully chosen selection of Tibetan pieces up to CHF 100, all handmade and chosen personally for quality and meaning.
