AMITABHA BUDDHA AMULET

Monks make these amulets, adding secret ingredients to the clay mix. These can include anything from flowers and herbs/oils to the ashes of burnt scriptures. Sometimes, gemstone fragments or crystals are also embedded into the clay before it is fired. The amulets are then consecrated with ritual chants and Buddhist holy water and offered to parishioners. 

This is not a mass-produced tourist item but a highly collectible and spiritually blessed Buddhist object intended to be worn for good fortune and protection.
