Vintage Tibetan Gau Prayer Box Amulet – Mixed Metal Pendant, Boho Tribal Jewelry

This vintage Tibetan gau (or ghao) amulet pendant is a symbolic prayer box traditionally worn for spiritual protection. Made of mixed metal in aged silver and brass tones, it features ornate wire filigree with a central turquoise-colored cabochon surrounded by coral-red beads—likely imitation stones, common in mid-century Tibetan jewelry. The pendant is hollow but does not open, with a triple-loop bail and decorative finial typical of Himalayan design. Unmarked and artisan-made, it has visible patina and has been lightly cleaned to preserve its character. A striking piece for collectors, boho stylists, or lovers of tribal and Buddhist-inspired adornment. * Authentic vintage Tibetan gau pendant * Mixed metal with silver & brass tones * Estimated mid-20th century * Very good vintage condition with age-related patina, some dents on the backside. * Boho, tribal, and spiritual style * Quality Faux turquoise & coral accents * Decorative finial and triple bail top * Hollow body, does not open * Unmarked artisan-made piece
