Consecration Process & Service

The statue includes a hollow chamber designed to hold rolled mantras, sacred relics, incense, herbal powders, and fragrant wood. During consecration, these are carefully filled and blessed through ritual prayers by qualified monks, making the statue spiritually complete and ready for your altar. A fee will be charged for this service, which is respectfully donated to the lamas performing the rituals.

Please note: Once consecrated, each statue becomes a sacred object and part of your spiritual journey. As such, it cannot be returned or refunded after this special blessing.

Statue Care Guide

Display with Care: Preserve your statue in a glass cabinet to protect it from dust, moisture, and accidental damage.
Dusting: Use a soft, clean cotton cloth to gently wipe away dust. Avoid using rough or abrasive materials.
Minimize Handling: Avoid touching gold-plated statues frequently, as natural oils from your skin can accelerate tarnishing.
Do Not Scrub: Never use steel wool, metal-bristled brushes, or scrubbing pads. These can scratch and damage delicate surfaces.

Very Good Quality. Amazing Service

Seller is attentive, and tries their best to accomodate Buyer's requests. If you have specific requirements, or customizations — just chat/talk to them. I will definitely be getting my next statue from here.

Highest quality of goods and service.

I have reccomended your website to many of my dharma friends for the very best quality of statue that you offer, the vast range to choose the perfect one for you, your reliability in sending the correct piece, quickly and always well packed. The pricing reflects all of this and is a little high, but for the quality of goods and service, and for the fact that a statue lasts lifetimes... for me it makes it a wonderful investment. Thank you.

Thank You

Thank you for all of your help with my order.

I'm truly happy with this purchase.

I received the statue and it's even more beautiful in person. Tara is truly splendid: the proportions, details, and patina are extraordinary, a very elegant and harmonious presence. Shipping was very fast, even faster than expected, and the packaging was extremely careful: the statue arrived perfectly protected. I'm truly happy with this purchase. A wonderful piece, which in person conveys even more beauty and delicacy than the photos. Thank you!

The statue arrived in Switzerland via express delivery in an incredible three days, in a wooden crate secured with nails. It was thickly packaged, officially sealed, and included additional gifts. The artistic expression is beautiful and vibrant, which is especially rare for a small statue. The small colored beads are glued on and may fall off, but the important thing is the sturdy metalwork. Even without filling the crate, the bottom of the statue was securely sealed with a hammer and a copper disc. Everything demonstrates great care and dedication, and it will be a valuable aid to me. Thank you! 🙏

I purchased was much more beautiful in person than in the photos.

Gentilezza e disponibilità

Sin dal momento dell'acquisto, tramite il contatto whatsapp c'è stato un seguire la fase di preparazione e spedizione della statua. Le risposte relative ai miei quesiti sempre quasi immediate nonostante i fusi orari.

High Quality Taras

For me, the facial features of the statues are key as they should signify compassion, tranquillity and wisdom. Found these White Tara and Green Tara that I love very much. The logistics are well taken care of and the statues arrived in good conditions. Thank you, Nidhiratna!
