About The Sankha:
At 41 cm tall and 29 cm broad, the Tibetan Ritual Conch Shell (Shankha) is a powerful and attractive addition to any religious environment. Its fan-shaped form, embellished with elaborate patterns and sacred symbols, combines ceremonial significance with aesthetic elegance. A traditional instrument in spiritual rituals, the Shankha typically employs sound to represent the divine connection.
This Shankha is created from a copper body that has been electro-plated and decorated with stunning filigree work. Carefully inlaid genuine lapis lazuli, turquoise, and coral stones give warm colors and improve the piece's appearance. This sculpture is a magnificent example of traditional skill, with each aspect showcasing the talent and commitment of Nepalese artisans.
Both Buddhist and Hindu traditions place a great deal of spiritual significance on the Shankha. The conch shell symbolizes purity and divine awakening, while the dragon pattern stands for power and protection. This Shankha offers spiritual energy and cultural importance to any sacred position, whether used in rituals or displayed as décor.
Introduction to Sankha
In Buddhist worship, the conch shell is used as a trumpet or offertory receptacle and represents Buddha's spoken voice. It is one of the eight lucky Buddhist symbols, reflecting the victory of Buddha's teachings, which spread omnidirectionally like a conch shell's voice. The conch shell is a sign of power, authority, and sovereignty; its sound is thought to ward off evil spirits, prevent natural disasters, and frighten away dangerous creatures.
