At present we do not offer fixed terms for resellers or bulk orders. However, you are welcome to write to us using our contact form and tell us what you need. We review every enquiry personally.
Our Pieces
Most of our pieces are made by Tibetan craftspeople in the Himalayas, using traditional techniques. We source our incense from Tibetan makers and our Sorig herbs directly from the Men-Tsee-Khang. We choose every piece with great care.
Many of our pieces are made by hand, such as singing bowls, statues, thangkas and prayer flags. Because each of these pieces is made by hand, no two are alike. Colour, grain, painting or sound may therefore differ slightly from the photo. This is not a flaw, but a sign of genuine handcraft.
Yes. Singing bowls, prayer flags and statues accompany many people regardless of their religion, for example in meditation or as a reminder of values such as compassion and serenity. In the Tibetan tradition, what matters most is treating them with respect: do not regard these pieces as mere decoration, but handle them mindfully.
Place the statue in a clean, raised spot, for example on a shelf or a small altar. Avoid the floor, the bathroom and places where feet point towards the statue.
No. In our tradition, selling consecrated statues is not considered appropriate. You therefore receive your statue unconsecrated. If you wish, you can have it consecrated by monks or lamas, for example at the Tibet Institute Rikon or at another Buddhist centre.
