Potalaworld Since 1975 we have sold to auction houses, shops and antiques dealers; now, through the miracle of the Internet we sell directly to the consumer. We spend a large part of every year in Asia and have personally selected every item that we sell. Our particular interest is in Tibet and things Tibetan and we will stand behind the authenticity of everything that we sell.
