Description

Tsha-tsha are terracottas, or unfired earthenware figures, in the form of cast-sculptured stupas/choerten (reliquaries) or reliefs, which are decorated in a variety of religious motifs in bas-relief or half-relief.

These votive offerings in earth or loam are produced by hand by believers or monks with models (casts) and serve many different purposes in every day religious life.

With the depiction of over 360 objects, this book offers an outstanding review of the diverse manifestations and the extensive iconography of these exceptional ritual objects from the Buddhist cultural sphere. Text in German.
