Very finely crafted Phurba ritual dagger made of silver, in three different versions in different sizes.

A "phurba" (also "phurpa" or "phurbu") is a three-sided ritual object resembling a dagger, which is used in shamanistic traditions in the Himalayan region as well as in Buddhism in Tibet and the Bin. The deity or yidam associated with the object is called Dorje Phurba or Vajrakila(ya). The knob shows it with three faces. One of them is joyful, one peaceful and one angry.

Our silver phurba are made in a traditional Nepalese silversmithy and can also be worn as a pendant - e.g. on a mala - by attaching an eyelet.

Brief instructions for measuring wrist size:

Loosely wrap a measuring tape or string around your wrist where you want the bracelet to sit. Make sure that it fits snugly but does not cut in. Read the circumference directly from the measuring tape or measure the length of the cord with a ruler.

Note:
The length of the bracelet may be 1 cm to 3 cm longer than the measured wrist circumference, depending on your taste.

Brief instructions for measuring the ring size:

Method 1: Measure the inner diameter of a suitable ring

Take a ring that fits well.
Place it on a ruler and measure the inner diameter (from one inner edge to the other).
Compare the diameter with the table to determine the ring size.

Method 2: Measure the circumference of your finger

Take a thin strip of paper or thread.
Wrap it around the part of the finger where you want the ring to sit (not too tight).
Mark the point where the ends meet.
Measure the length of the strip in millimeters. This is the inner circumference.
Find the right size in the table.

Tips:

Measure the finger size in the evening, as fingers swell slightly during the day.
If you are between two sizes, choose the larger size.
Make sure that the ring fits over the knuckle.
