Tibetan Snow Lion Lamp in Buddhism, snow lions, or Seng, are considered as Buddha's protectors. They are shown in sculptures and art as supporting the thrones held by various Buddhist deities, which are said to symbolize the power and courage of Buddhas. In this brass lamp, used as a ritual item for Buddhist rituals, the Seng is pictured holding the lamp over his head and standing on an inverted lotus pedestal. The lamp holds ceremonial values and is carefully guarded so that it can be utilized during ceremonies. This lamp has the usual Nepali patina color with metal deposits at the curvatures, which are most likely the result of the brass metal interacting with the air. The lamp seems old and has a long life due to the use of high-quality metal.
