21 Taras Copper Frame | Handcrafted Buddhist Home Decor

This vibrant 21 Tara frame is entirely handcrafted from copper by master Newari artisans in Patan, Nepal, using the traditional repoussé technique of hand hammering and embossing metal to create intricate raised relief work. Each of the 21 Taras is individually crafted from copper and finished with luminous gold gilding, beautifully highlighting the intricate details and sacred symbolism of this traditional Nepalese Buddhist artwork.

At the center sits Tara, the female Bodhisattva of Compassion, seated within a beautifully gilded arch and adorned with fine gold detailing. Surrounding her are the 20 emanations of Tara, each individually crafted and placed within its own spot across the ornate arched frame. The entire piece is richly hand painted with delicate lotus blossoms across the background, creating a luminous jewel toned finish that reflects the distinctive beauty of traditional Newari Buddhist art.

The 21 Taras are highly revered in Tibetan Buddhism, with each manifestation representing a distinct aspect of Tara’s compassion, protection, wisdom, and enlightened activity. Together, the 21 Taras serve as powerful symbols for meditation, prayer, devotion, and spiritual practice, making this sacred Buddhist artwork a meaningful representation of compassion, protection, wisdom, and inner transformation. This substantial copper shrine frame makes a striking centerpiece for a home altar, meditation space, or personal collection of Himalayan Buddhist art. This piece is both a devotional object and a work of fine art.

About 21 Tara

21 Taras are a complete mandala of emanations arising from the compassionate tears of the bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara. They represent the active, feminine aspect of enlightenment that works swiftly for the benefit of all beings. Each Tara is a unique expression of enlightened activity, specializing in overcoming specific obstacles like fear, disease, poverty, and spiritual delusions. Practices dedicated to them involve visualization, mantra recitation, and prayers from a sacred text known as the "Praises to the 21 Taras." Through this, devotees seek their blessings for both worldly protection and ultimate spiritual goals, viewing them as compassionate mothers who guide all sentient beings on the path to liberation and Buddhahood.
