This Yellow Jambhala Mini Thangka Pendant is a finely crafted Tibetan Buddhist devotional artwork, presented in pendant format and created by lineage-trained Tibetan artists. The thangka depicts Yellow Jambhala (Dzambhala Serpo), revered as the principal wealth deity in Vajrayana Buddhism.
Fully hand-painted using natural mineral pigments and mounted within a vintage-style silver case, this piece reflects traditional Tibetan craftsmanship rather than industrial production. It is created as a cultural, artistic, and devotional object suitable for long-term preservation and collection.
② Deity Introduction
Yellow Jambhala, also known as Dzambhala Serpo, is regarded as the chief among the Five Wealth Deities in Tibetan Buddhism and is venerated across all major Tibetan Buddhist schools. He is considered a Dharma protector whose role is to safeguard spiritual practitioners from material obstacles.
Symbolically, Yellow Jambhala represents generosity, protection, and the cultivation of wisdom through correct livelihood. His imagery emphasizes balance between material sufficiency and spiritual integrity.
③ Spiritual Meaning & Practice Logic
Yellow Jambhala is traditionally associated with the accumulation of merit through generosity, ethical conduct, and disciplined practice. In Vajrayana tradition, his practice emphasizes removing conditions of scarcity that hinder spiritual focus, rather than pursuing wealth as an end in itself.
Engagement with Yellow Jambhala imagery is understood as a reminder of right intention, responsible stewardship, and the interdependence between material stability and spiritual development.
④ Combined Practice Logic
Not applicable.
This piece depicts a single deity and follows a traditional single-icon composition.

Each piece is hand-painted by experienced Tibetan lineage artists who follow canonical iconographic measurements, reflecting an artistic lineage rooted in classical Tibetan court and monastic painting traditions rather than factory-based replication.
