About Our Product
This Himalayan Ritual Kapala measures 26 cm in height, 17 cm in length, and 25 cm in width, and weighs 1.98 kg. Made in 2017 by artist Mekhe, it combines an iron stand with a copper kapala finished with fire gilding. The wide bowl, raised stand, skull ornaments, and traditional decorative details give this ritual object a distinctive Himalayan Buddhist appearance. It can be placed on a Buddhist altar or used as part of a Vajrayana ritual setting.
This Kapala shows carefully arranged symbolic details. The bowl has a decorated rim with repeated skull motifs, while three prominent skull forms rise around the upper section, each topped with a flame-like ornament. The central front element presents a crowned head surrounded by traditional ornamentation. Small skulls and flowing decorative patterns continue around the rim. Below the bowl, the iron stand has curved supports ending in scroll-like forms, with additional skull ornaments placed at the sides and front. The skull imagery relates to impermanence and the transformation of ordinary attachments, while the fire gilding highlights selected copper details.
This Ritual Kapala can be used as a ceremonial vessel in Vajrayana Buddhist practices where a kapala is traditionally required. It may also be displayed on a Buddhist shrine, altar, meditation space, or spiritual collection as a representation of tantric Buddhist symbolism. The imagery encourages reflection on impermanence, transformation, and the path toward spiritual realization.
Introduction of Kapala Stand
In Tibetan Buddhism, the Kapala stands as a ritual implement with profound significance, used primarily in the practice of Chöd. Chöd, a form of tantric meditation, involves cutting through ego and attachment to achieve insight into the true nature of reality. The Kapala, crafted from the skull of a deceased person, functions as an offering bowl within these rituals. It is believed that the enlightened mind of the deceased individual is transformed into wisdom, guiding practitioners toward liberation. This ancient practice underscores the fundamental Buddhist principle of impermanence, encouraging practitioners to transcend their ego-centric perceptions and embrace compassion and wisdom. Through Chöd and the use of the Kapala, practitioners embark on a transformative journey, ultimately aiming to attain Buddhahood.

Customer Reviews
Overall rating: 5 / 5 from 467 reviews.
The level of craftsmanship by the artisans with Evam Ratna is truly exceptional.. The photos on the website showcase these beautiful items, but the special quality of their presence is felt when beheld directly. When I opened the carefully constructed package and encountered the ghanta, vajra,, rupa, and damaru tassels directly, I was overjoyed. I could feel the heart and care that went into their creation.

Handcrafted Traditional Bhumba | Sacred Ritual Offering Vessel
Looks and feels great 👍
Really enjoyed my experience receiving our Tonka.. We were more than happy with how ours came out! You will be too...
The Manjushri statue I purchased is of very high quality and has tremendous presence on my altar, far exceeding my expectations. It was well packed and arrived surprisingly quickly. Evam Ratna kept me informed throughout the process and even shared additional photos before shipping to ensure I was aware that the statue had oxidized somewhat since the pictures on the site were taken (not an issue but really appreciate the transparency). Thanks again for the beautiful statue -- I'll be a frequent visitor to the website in the future!
The statue came in excellent condition! I was worried especially since I had it consecrated before shipping (which evamratna offers for a fee if you ask!) But the statue came perfectly. Also, it was way bigger than I anticipated which was a lovely surprise, because usually the statues come smaller than I thought when initially buying them. These statues are pricy, but I recommend having at least one in your collection if you can afford it. You’re also supporting local Nepalese craftsmen, and the price I find is reasonable for most people.
Beautiful statue!
The Communication was very good, friendly and supportive. The Beautiful Buddha Statue was very good packed and arrived safely. The Buddha Statue Looks exactly as showed in the Pictures. We also received a response to our question how old the Statue is and Where It was Made.We Highly recommend EvamRatna as a relieable Company with Experience and Personal Care.
Wonderful vajra and bell. Even better than we could have ever imagined.

I am truly satisfied with the purchase of this Buddhist Prayer Wheel. The beautiful embossed writing is Davanagari, the Sanskrit/Nepali alphabet also used in Tibet. The formula it reads is the classic mantra "Om Mani Padme Hum." This Prayer Wheel's unique feature is the inclusion of sacred figures that represent various aspects of spiritual life with precise meanings. The service I received was impeccable, attentive to my needs, punctual, and always very friendly. I thank Shreya for this attention. I recommend EvamRatna for the extraordinary workmanship of the items for sale. Kind Regards, Enrico Battistotti.
