About our Bhumba:
The Tibetan Ritual Bhumba is a remarkable object crafted from copper, featuring intricate gold and silver plating. Known for its durability and strength, copper ensures the object can endure ceremonial use. The gold plating symbolizes purity and spiritual elevation, while the silver accents showcase exceptional craftsmanship. Together, these metals make the Bhumba visually striking and deeply symbolic, as gold and silver often symbolize the divine and sacred in Tibetan tradition. This special combination of materials allows the Bhumba to function as both a practical and decorative piece for many years.
Meticulously crafted, the Tibetan Ritual Bhumba exemplifies traditional Tibetan artistry. Skilled artisans employ time-honored techniques to shape the copper, then apply gold and silver plating. Hand-carved decorative details, like intricate golden motifs on the base, spout, and lid, highlight the artisan’s dedication. Its ornate features hold spiritual significance in Tibetan rituals, where it is used to contain sacred offerings or liquids. This piece functions both as a ritual vessel and a symbolic artifact, embodying the deep spirituality and cultural richness of Tibetan Buddhism.

Water is essential in both Hindu and Buddhist rites, and it is always present on the altar, either in a pricey pot or in another container. Bhumba is a pot with the shape of a flat jar and a pipe to draw out the water from the pot that is elaborately embellished with valuable stones and metal.
