About

Octagonal Silver-Gilt Tea Cup Set with Matching Saucer

A rare octagonal Tibetan silver-gilt tea bowl set, richly adorned with deeply repoussé Buddhist motifs. Each panel is meticulously worked by hand, featuring the Eight Auspicious Symbols (Ashtamangala) — including the Endless Knot, Victory Banner, Conch Shell, and Treasure Vase — all executed in high-relief detail that reflects the spiritual artistry of the Himalayan region. The faceted finial on the lid adds a jewel-like accent, while the octagonal form symbolizes good fortune and protection in Tibetan culture. Traditionally, sets like this were used for tea offerings or ceremonial purposes on family or monastery altars.

With its exceptional craftsmanship, balanced proportions, and beautifully aged silver patina, this piece stands as both a functional ritual object and a refined collectible for connoisseurs of Himalayan art.Rare to find as a complete set—only 6 sets available—this piece blends collectible charm with functional artistry, making it ideal for display, gifting, or ceremonial use.
