FAQs

A thangka is a traditional Tibetan Buddhist painting on cotton or silk applique, usually depicting a deity, mandala, or scene, which serves as a medium for spiritual practice and meditation.

Traditional thangkas are painted using natural mineral and organic pigments mixed with a glue medium on specially prepared cotton canvas, often bordered with silk brocade.

Authentic antique pieces display natural pigment oxidisation, fine hand-painted details on aged fabric, traditional mineral coloration, and wear patterns consistent with ritual handling.

A thangka can be mounted on a neutral wall using traditional wooden hanging rods or framed with conservation glass to serve as a striking focal point in a study or living space.

Textile art should be kept away from direct sunlight and high humidity to prevent pigment fading and fabric degradation, using acid-free backing materials when framing.
