The window reveals a tsa-tsa, finely molded to depict three seated Buddhist deities arranged within an arched niche, all seated on a lotus base and framed by halos, with two attendant deities appearing below, also seated on lotus thrones.The copper backplate is decorated with the Kalachakra monogram (Namchu Wangden).Provenance: Collection of Philippe Icher (b. 1956), French ceramic artist and collector, whose works are held in numerous renowned collections throughout Europe. His collection, assembled over several decades during his travels across Asia, includes Himalayan, Tibetan, and Nepalese artifacts that have profoundly inspired his artistic practice.Condition: Good condition with minor wear and manufacturing irregularities.

A clay tsa-tsa figure of Chaturbhuja Avalokiteshvara,2. Two inscribed manuscript slips with ritual texts,3. A cloth-wrapped bundle,4. An inscribed cloth.Gau are sacred receptacles serving many purposes in Tibetan daily life, including as a sign of social status and rank. They are most commonly constructed from metal repoussé and made according to three different sizes. The small and medium sized gaus are portable, while the largest of gaus were often placed within a home or temple. All hold sacred and auspicious objects including tsatsa which can often be seen through a viewing window. Their purpose, as stated by Rhie and Thurman, “...served as a site where the wisdom emanation of that enlightened being could be invoked and communicated with.” (A Shrine for Tibet, New York, 2009, p. 255)The Kalachakra seed syllable (the Namchu Wangden, or rnam bcu dbang ldan), known as the 'Sign of the All-Powerful Ten,' is a monogram composed of ten intertwined syllables in the archaic Lantsa script, which together represent the elements of the universe according to the Kalachakra Tantra. It is regarded as a powerfully protective emblem.To Tibetans, creating tsa tsas is a spiritual practice that accumulates merit and fosters well-being. It is one of Vajrayana Buddhism's five preliminary practices, aimed at eliminating obstacles, purifying negativity, and generating positive energy. Practitioners often aim to create 100,000 tsa tsas in their lifetime. These sacred tablets are displayed in altars, stupas, prayer wheel niches, or holy sites and serve as protective amulets when placed in portable shrines (gau). Tsa tsas symbolize the Buddha's blessings and may include sacred substances, such as ashes or hair of revered figures, to enhance their spiritual potency.Auction result comparison: Type: Related Auction: Zacke, Vienna, 16 December 2025, lot 16Price: EUR 2,080 : A fine embossed copper portable shrine with tsatsa, Gau Expert remark: Compare the related material, form, decoration and size (12.3 cm).
