Whether utilized by practitioners or collectors of authentic Vajrayana ritual implements, this set captures the essence of enlightened victory and sacred presence in every detail.
Introduction to Richen Daru
Richen Daru is a ritual set made up of a knife and a spoon used by the Newar community in Nepal. Typically composed of iron, the set has intricate gold and silver ornamentation. The knife, known as a 'Chhuri,' is used ritually to chop food during traditional ceremonies, such as weddings, bratabandha, and other religious occasions. The spoon, known as a 'Chamcha,' is used for serving. The Richen Daru set represents affluence and is an essential cultural relic that is frequently passed down through generations as a family legacy.
