Called “tsakli,” miniature Tibetan Buddhist paintings such as this one depict specific deities or auspicious symbols and were used as to facilitate meditation, create mandalas or stand in for specific deities during ritual practices. Remarkable for its vivid color, this 19th-century prayer card depicts a silver vessel filled with flowers. Known as a treasure vase, it symbolizes worldly success, prosperity and good luck.

“Over the years, I’ve incorporated many pieces from PAGODA RED into my designs. Not only can they balance new furnishings (and often new construction) by feeling more established, but the pieces emanate a sense of rich history, often leaving you wondering where they were in a previous life. These beautiful pieces carefully hand-selected by the team at PAGODA RED, coupled with their unbelievable customer service, make them a must-have for any home.”
