A supreme silver gau that was hand crafted by the master silversmith,
Peter Mannox. He is also well known for his stunning
photographic portraits of the 16th Gyalwa Karmapa.
This particular piece is a homage to Vajra Varahi
(Dorje Pakmo). Her mandala is also
engraved on the inside. Another
compartment opens to
store relics etc.

Antique Miniature Vajra Varahi or Dorje Pakmo Statue.
As this piece has been carved from white stone, it possibly
represents the 'white' form of Vajra Varahi that is
practiced in the lineage of Shakya Shribhadra.
