Culture: Tibetan. Dimensions: H.: 20.3 cm (8 in.); Diam.; 9.5 cm (3-3/4 in.). Date: late 19th century.The dril-bu (bell) along with the dorje (scepter) are indispensable liturgical instruments used during Buddhist ritual recitation. They are usually regarded as one object, are matched and used together. The bell is held in the left hand and the scepter in the right as both hands gracefully move in prescribed gestures that serve as a commentary to the recitation. As a pair, they reflect the two aspects of Buddhist practice: method and wisdom, intuition and compassion. The prongs emerging from the bell's handle have their roots in Indic mythology and recall the thunderbolt scepter of Indra, a Hindu warrior god who governs rain, clouds and lightning. Small dorjes appear at the bell's rim. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.Pedestal 1865-70 American.

This arrowhead is dated 1645 and signed by Umetada Motoshige (died 1675), a member of the Umetada school of swordsmiths, tsuba makers, and iron chiselers. It belongs to a group of more than thirty similarly signed and dated pieces in the Metropolitan Museum's collection (including acc. nos. 32.75.318, .321, .327, .330, .334, .337, .340, .398-.399, .403, .406, .409) that may have been made for presentation or as a votive offering to a shrine..

The size and shape of the individual pieces of glass mimic the actual petals and leaves of the flower itself.
