Details: A finely cast and well modeled example of a 17th century Himalayan Phurbu. The tripartite iron blade is emerging from the jaws of a ferocious makara with the grip shaped as a vajra flanked by a pair of endless knots rising to a three faced Hayagriva pommel surmounted by a half vajra finial. Age: 17th Century. Length: 25 cm. Remarks: This piece is probably Tibetan, but the workmanship is probably Newari (Nepalese). |
