My father purchased this from Tokyo Shogei-kan in Reiwa 4 (2022) and it has been stored in the closet ever since. I hope someone who appreciates its value will purchase it. It was purchased for nearly 50,000 yen, so I will sell it at a lower price. Thank you. Impressed by the beauty of the crystal supported by the solemn and gorgeous lotus pedestal! ■ Crystal has long been said to purify evil spirits. It is deeply connected to Buddhism, such as being used in the forehead of Buddhist statues and in the reliquary containers placed in the base of Buddhist pagodas, and is also counted as one of the seven treasures under the name of "glass." ■ The "Heart Sutra Crystal Jewel" introduced this time is a masterpiece made by carefully polishing molten crystal into a clear, pure round jewel. The 12cm diameter jewel is engraved with the Heart Sutra, which was translated by Xuanzang and summarizes the truth of Buddhism. As you gaze at each character of the Heart Sutra, which appears to float in clear water, a sense of reverence will naturally well up. ■ The lotus pedestal holding the crystal has a gorgeous golden color. The openwork on each of the fluttering lotus petals. The pedestal supporting it is also impressive, further enhancing the beauty of the colorless and transparent crystal. This is truly a crystal artwork with the style and quality of a famous old temple. ※※Beautiful crystal that you'll stare at, praying for good health※※ Diameter 12cm "Heart Sutra Crystal Jewel" Buddhist altar fittings, lotus pedestal, stand included, for good health, family safety, prosperity, gifts, presents, mail order sales Product number: HTB1002 45,650 yen (tax included), free shipping Excerpt from the Tokyo Shogei-kan website
