    Buddhist Influence in the Design:
    Mahakala in Buddhism:

    In Tibetan Buddhism, Mahakala is a wrathful protector deity, an emanation of Avalokiteshvara (Chenrezig), the bodhisattva of compassion.
    He is worshipped for removing negativity, obstacles, and protecting Dharma practitioners.
    Traditional Metal Craftsmanship:

    Such intricate repoussé (metal embossing) artwork is widely seen in Tibetan and Nepalese monasteries.
    The use of gold, silver, and bronze inlaid with turquoise and coral is characteristic of Newari and Himalayan Buddhist art.
    Ornamental Elements:

    The flaming halo around the deity represents divine energy and purification.
    Dragons and floral motifs are common in Tibetan and Chinese Buddhist art, symbolizing power, wisdom, and protection.
    The gems and detailed border work reflect auspiciousness and sacredness.
    This antique frame is a remarkable fusion of Hindu and Buddhist traditions, making it a rare and valuable collectible for spiritual seekers, collectors, and art enthusiasts.

    This Mahakala frame is considered highly auspicious and powerful in both Hinduism and Buddhism for removing negative energies, Vastu dosh, and obstacles.
