Description
This fabric is a Tibetan Buddhist door curtain made in silk brocade of very high quality. This type of brocade is often found on many entries of buildings and temples in Tibet, Nepal and northern India. The illustration on the curtain represents two crossed-dorje or double dorje. The symbolism of the double dorje is basically the same as the single Dorje. It is emptiness, but the focus here is specifically on its indestructibility and eternal qualities. For this reason, it is often shown in a brocade hanging on the door of the temples or before the throne of the great lamas, recalling the eternal nature of the enlightened mind as much as that of knowledge. This magnificent curtain is manufactured in Nepal and has three hooks on top to hook and unhook easily.

Warning
All our objects are handmade. Each piece is unique and it is impossible to reproduce exactly the same. Slight differences may therefore appear in the shapes, proportions, colors and / or materials used in our descriptions and specification sheets.
The silver (metal) used in Nepal is always composed of an amalgam and is most often plated on metal parts. Most of the stores that sell 925 sterling silver products from Nepal are fraudulent!
Likewise, some stones considered semi-precious from Nepal or India are actually stones reconstituted from powder of semi-precious stones, such as turquoise or coral. Nevertheless, they seem to retain the properties of the original stones. In the case where reconstituted stones are used, we always specify it in the specifcation sheeet.
