Four 18c Indian bronze ritual SKIN STAMPS

Item Details

Description

Four 18th century Indian bronze chhappa (a tantric ritual stamp), their bases leaving imprints of: a sacred text, a conch shell and 2 of satkona yantra surrounded by sun rays. The chhappas were used during tantric temple ceremonies to stamp the proscribed parts of the body such as the forehead, cheeks, shoulders, forearms and stomach with a paste of white (for Vaishnavites) or red (for Shaivites) sandalwood. The marks on the body provide a visual display of the adherent’s devotion and transfer the beneficence of the deity to the wearer. Finial-shaped tops, perforation in the middle for hanging, beautiful warm patina from age and use, losses as can be seen on photos. Length of the longest one is 1 3/4 inches.
