Sandalwood Burl Ritual Vessel of the Panchen Lama 檀香瘤木古供杯

This antique wooden cup, carved from rare sandalwood burl and inlaid with silver on the inside, is once belonged to the 5th Panchen Lama, Lobsang Yeshe (1663–1737), one of the most revered masters in Tibetan history. Elegant yet humble in form, it may have been used for ritual offerings or sacred medicinal preparations during his retreats at Tashilhunpo Monastery.

The vessel was later entrusted to a prominent Tibetan noble family, where it was carefully safeguarded for centuries. More than an object, it was revered as a living relic imbued with the blessings of the Panchen Lama himself. During moments of prayer, hardship, or healing, it was brought forth and handled with the utmost reverence.

The swirling grain of the sandalwood burl and the subtle gleam of silver within speak of a harmony between craftsmanship and spiritual devotion. Today, this vessel stands as a rare witness to Himalayan artistry, sacred legacy, and quiet reverence across generations.

五世班禪之檀香瘤木銀鑲供器

此件古老供杯，由稀有的檀香瘤木雕刻而成，內部更精鑲銀飾，曾為五世班禪喇嘛——羅桑益西（1663–1737）所使用之法器。器形樸雅，或曾用於供養儀式，亦可能盛裝藏藥於塔爾寺閉關修行之際。

其後，此聖器傳至一戶顯赫西藏貴族家族之手，代代珍藏。家族視之如生者遺物，深信其仍承載班禪喇嘛之加持與靈光。在祈福、治病、修行等重要時刻方會取出供奉，倍加敬重。

木紋層層渦動，映照歲月；銀光隱現於盌中，象徵著匠藝與信仰的結合。今日，此杯不僅是喜馬拉雅藝術的證物，更是跨越時代的精神承載，見證著一段傳承不息的敬仰與虔誠。
