Small brass phurba from Nepal. From vintage origin. As can be seen on the pictures, the decoration of this one isn't particularly high in quality, but it is of course ready to do the work nevertheless. This phurba is relatively small in size; 10 centimeters length and 19 grams weight. A phurba in this size can easily fit in your travel-kit, be attached to your shamanic 'multi-tool' or even be worn on a cord around your neck (please note that it's not a ready-made pendant, there's no hole drilled in this one).
Design characteristics:
The handle of this phurba is adorned with a dorje or vajra symbol. The symbol of the dorje is widespread in both Buddhism and Hinduism. It translates both as 'diamond' and as 'lightning bolt' and symbolizes principles such as masculinity, indestructabilty and active healing power. It destroys all kinds of ignorance and supports in seeing through the distractions of the human mind, distinguishing what is true and false.
