Indian Om Mane Padme Hum Cuff

Tall band of raised script sits in a fine corded frame.

This sterling silver cuff inscribed with Om Mane Padme Hum is from India. Om Mani Padme Hum is the best-known mantra of Tibetan Buddhism, and it is associated with Avalokiteshvara, the bodhisattva of compassion. Broad open cuff with a center line of tall raised characters framed above and below by rope-twist borders. Round flower-like studs mark each end of the front panel. The finish is bright with gentle scratches. It is 2.5 inches long and 2 high.

A message worth wearing, whatever it says.
