About our Bhumba:
This Handmade Copper Bhumba is a stunning example of traditional Tibetan metal artistry and Buddhist ritual craftsmanship. Standing 23 cm high and 16 cm wide, and weighing 0.76 kg, it is meticulously handcrafted from pure copper. In Tibetan Buddhism, a Bhumba is a sacred water vessel used during religious ceremonies and purification rituals, symbolizing spiritual cleansing and prosperity.

The intricate engravings on this Handmade Copper Bhumba depict auspicious motifs, including floral vines, deities, and animals that represent protection and abundance. Each side of the vase reflects the deep symbolism of Buddhist philosophy — elephants signify strength and patience, while the flowing patterns around the vessel embody balance and continuity. The elegant copper sheen enhances its spiritual presence, making it a meaningful piece for temples, meditation spaces, or home altars. The craftsmanship showcases the fine detail of Himalayan artisans who have preserved this tradition for generations.
This Handmade Copper Bhumba is more than a ritual object — it is a vessel of blessings and devotion. Ideal for spiritual ceremonies, Buddhist altar decor, or as a sacred home ornament, it carries the energy of purification and mindfulness. Whether used in offerings or displayed as an expression of spiritual art, it connects you to centuries of Tibetan ritual practice.

Introduction to Bhumba:
Water is essential in both Hindu and Buddhist rites, and it is always present on the altar, either in a pricey pot or in another container. A bhumba is a pot shaped like a flat jar, featuring a pipe to draw out the water, and is elaborately embellished with valuable stones and metal.
