Bringing Ancient Himalayan Art to the World

A Thangka is a sacred Tibetan Buddhist scroll painting created on primed cotton or silk cloth using mineral pigments and genuine gold paint. Unlike decorative prints, authentic Thangkas adhere strictly to canonical mathematical proportions (Thig-tse) and serve as functional visual aids for meditation.

Hand-painted Thangkas show natural micro-variations in paint thickness, subtle mineral texture (such as lapis lazuli and malachite), and iridescent reflections under direct light from genuine 24-karat gold gouache. Factory prints lack paint relief, feature pixel patterns under a loupe, and use flat chemical bronzing powders.

All our Thangkas are hand-painted by master artists in the Kathmandu Valley, Nepal—the premier historical center for Newar Paubha and Tibetan Thangka traditions. Your order is carefully packaged in our Kathmandu studio and dispatched via fully tracked, insured express courier.

Thangkas can be mounted in traditional brocade silk frames with wooden rods for rolling or framed behind non-reflective, UV-protective museum glass. Avoid hanging your Thangka in direct sunlight or high-humidity zones to preserve the organic mineral tempera and 24K gold work indefinitely.

Our sacred talismanic jewelry is handcrafted in sterling silver and copper, set with genuine untreated Himalayan stones including natural Tibetan turquoise, raw red coral, lapis lazuli, and carnelian. Each piece incorporates canonical Buddhist symbols and protective seed syllables.
