Provenance

Butter lamps are an essential element in the offering practices of Tibetan Buddhism and represent the offering of light to enlightened beings. Butter lamps are called “the Dharma light”.

Their form is reminiscent of the Christian chalice and they would have been used on an
altar, filled to the brim with yak butter oil and with a single wick floating in each.
