Lot 95: A Tibetan Buddhist Four-Pronged Iron and Copper Inlaid Vajra Dorje

This elongated, double-ended ritual implement, known as a vajra or dorje, is crafted from a dark-toned metal, likely an iron alloy, with contrasting reddish-brown metal bands, possibly copper inlay. Each end features four curved prongs emerging from a central finial. The cylindrical grip is intricately decorated with textured bands, a woven-look segment, and fluted designs. The style is consistent with a Himalayan or Tibetan Buddhist ritual object from the Vajrayana tradition.
