Kalachakra Tibetan Gau Pendant

Kalachakra Tibetan Pentagon-Shaped Gau Box Amulet Pendant: Available in 2 Color Finishes and 3 Sizes

This 925 silver traditional pentagon-shaped Kalachakra Gau box is decorated with floral and lotus petal patterns on the cover, coiled floral motifs on the rim and the Kalachakra ten-syllable mantra on the back cover. This gau has a classic Tibetan design with a large, clear-covered window to display its contents.

The Kalachakra ten-syllable mantra is traditionally associated with protection and the removal of obstacles, symbolizing wisdom, compassion, and the harmony of all elements.

Gau, also known as Gawu or Ghau, is the Tibetan term for an amulet box that holds precious objects, such as small sculptures or relics. Filled with sacred objects, a gau serves as a portable shrine and is traditionally worn as a symbol of protection. The central window typically reveals a small statue or thangka.
