Cast in bronze and richly gilded, the stupa features a bulbous dome chased with scrolling lotus motifs. Lion-mask handles bite loose rings around the body, symbolizing protection and authority. A tiered, ribbed spire rises above, while a lotus pedestal supports the structure (partially visible). The warm gilding and soft patina enhance its devotional presence—well suited for altar display and connoisseurship.
