Her thumb and ring finger touch to form a circle, while the other fingers are extended—the gesture with which Tara grasps the lotus. A blue robe with gold dots, red accents, and the delicate white line of the stem stand out against the green background. The painting is set in a narrow titanium steel frame; the reverse side bears an engraving of Namchu Wangden beneath an arch of flames.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eIt is modeled after a mural from the Kumbum of the Pelkor Chöde Monastery in Gyantse, Tibet. The name Kumbum means “one hundred thousand images”; the 15th-century stupa contains hundreds of chapels with murals spread across several floors, which are among the most significant examples of Himalayan art. The Green Tara on the second floor is considered one of its most beautiful depictions—the hand gesture in this miniature is derived from her.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe pendant hangs from a hand-braided cord in green and gold, from which hangs a gold-plated tag bearing Manjushri’s seed syllable; the length can be adjusted up to about 75 cm using the sliding knots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe miniatures are painted at the Rimou Thangka Studio in Luhuo, Eastern Tibet. The studio carries on a local painting tradition that dates back more than 400 years and trains young painters from the region.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eCHARU connects designers with artisan cooperatives in the Tibetan cultural region and uses these connections to develop products that bring traditional techniques into everyday life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003ePendant 4.6 × 3.8 × 0.6 cm · 24.5 g · Adjustable circumference up to approx. 75 cm · Titanium steel · Hand-painted thangka miniature · Handcrafted in Tibet\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CHARU","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57288241381754,"sku":null,"price":224.0,"currency_code":"CHF","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0608\/8746\/6221\/files\/IMG_3753.png?v=1789934990","url":"https:\/\/ateliertibet.ch\/en\/products\/thangka-anhanger-grune-tara-handgemalt-charu-rimou-thangka","provider":"Atelier Tibet","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
