Experience the spiritual power and artistic radiance of this handcrafted Shankha trumpet, also known as Tibetan conch shell trumpet or Dung Dkar. In Buddhism, the Shankha is among the eight auspicious symbols and is regarded as a sacred instrument used during ritual ceremonies, prayers, and celebratory occasions.
The white conch shell symbolizes purity, auspiciousness, and the pursuit of the righteous path. Its clear, penetrating sound is intended to awaken the mind and lead it out of the sleep of ignorance—a parable for the Buddha's teachings.
This special piece impresses with intricate craftsmanship: set in a copper frame in a wing shape and decorated with fine filigree work, silver-plated, and adorned with gilded bead wire and colorful stones. The Shankha rests on a suitably decorated rectangular base. The filigree ornamentation gives the instrument a unique and noble appearance.
Whether as a spiritual ritual instrument or as an extraordinary decoration—the Shankha trumpet enriches any home with an atmosphere of peace, harmony, and deep connection to Buddhist tradition.
Conch shell, set in copper on a copper base. The copper is decorated with fine filigree, silver-plated, and gold-plated. Equipped with colorful stones. The conch trumpet and base are patinated for an antique finish. Handcrafted in Nepal.
