It is a common Han Tibetan fusion pattern in Tibetan ritual vessels during the Qing Dynasty - it not only reflects the majesty of the Central Plains dragon pattern, but also retains the rough texture of Tibetan carving.Lower part: Three petal pointed structureIn the shape of an inverted triangular lotus petal/pestle, the petal surface is divided into zones and engraved with rolling cloud patterns, with the tip converging. This not only echoes the \"thigh claw\" image of the Vajra pestle, but also has the auspicious meaning of the lotus petal pattern. It is a combination of the \"lotus seat\" and \"Vajra pestle\" elements in Tibetan Buddhist instruments.More Recommended Antique Items↓Right-click to open above images in a new tab and view larger-sized image resourcesIf you need more pictures or video information, please feel free to let me know - Thank you !
