I recently found a box of Mongolian ritual implements that I collected in the 1990s when Mongolia was first opening up to the West after the fall of the Soviet Union. Most were made of different colored metals, and seemed to be from one local area in Mongolia. It was also a period when the internet was first beginning to be used by the general public to sell antique items directly between different countries, as PayPal and eBay we're just beginning to become the powerhouses that they are today. I was able to collect more than 30 Dorjes, Vadras, Bells, and other ritual implements made of bronze, brass, and other metals. There were a few classic style dorjes and Vadras in the group, including these two. While purchased out of Mongolia, maybe Tibetan or Mongolian.This auction is for 2 Tibetan or Mongolian ritual thunderbolts that are made of 3 different metals. They are classic type and are 19th or 20th centuries. This auction is for both.
