Tibetan Lectern With Dragon Painting - 19thC

Constructed from cedar or pine, these altars are decorated in the traditional Tibetan mineral colours. They were often used as family altars as storage for important religious scrolls, silk ceremonial clothes, family jewellery and yak butter used in lamps.
Togam or Chosun cabinets were used to store ritual cakes or torma, they are often decorated with tantric designs.
Original antique Tibetan cabinets are now quite rare and there are many reproduction pieces made in China coming into the market.
