Antique Tibetan Silver Ritual Cup Lid | Dragon & Phoenix Motif | Himalayan Buddhist Art (LID ONLY, CUP NOT INCLUDED)

Exceptional antique Tibetan silver ceremonial vessel lid featuring finely executed repoussé and chased decoration with dragons, phoenixes, floral scrollwork, cloud motifs, and auspicious Buddhist symbols. The domed cover is surmounted by an elegant lotus-form finial adorned with a stylized floral motif and bordered by a geometric key-fret design. Richly detailed throughout, the lid displays the skilled craftsmanship and symbolic imagery characteristic of traditional Himalayan metalwork.

Originally created as the cover for a Tibetan Buddhist ritual cup or offering vessel, this substantial example retains an attractive aged patina that highlights the depth and refinement of the hand-worked decoration. The combination of dragons, sacred symbols, and intricate engraving reflects the artistic traditions of Tibetan religious art and ceremonial objects.

A desirable piece for collectors of Tibetan antiques, Himalayan art, Buddhist ritual objects, Asian silver, and religious metalwork.
