As someone who values handmade Buddhist gifts and enjoys giving and receiving them over the holidays, I couldn't be more excited to introduce you to Shakya Handicraft.
They are a group of Newari artisans – the indigenous people of the Kathmandu Valley in Nepal – who keep centuries of tradition alive by making beautiful Tibetan and Nepalese handicrafts.
All products such as Buddha statues, thangka paintings, Tibetan jewelry and carpets, singing bowls and meditation gifts are 100 percent handmade and can be customized and blessed by a monk in the Buddhist Jyatha monastery for an additional fee. this helps to keep the monastery going.
There is currently a special buy-one-get-one offer that is only available to Tiny Buddha readers.
When you purchase any item from the website, you will receive a free sterling silver and coral Red Love Knot pendant. All you have to do is enter your name and email address here to unlock the coupon code, add both the necklace and item of your choice to your cart, and enter the coupon code before you check out.
After signing up, you will receive a variety of promotional offers, including discounts on specific categories such as $ 40 off statues or 10 percent off carpets.
Although many items on their website, particularly the Buddha statues and Tibetan carpets, are priced on the higher end, they offer a wide range of affordable gifts, many under $ 100 and more under $ 50. Some of my favorites are:

I know it has been a difficult year financially for many and you may be on a tight budget this holiday season. Or, you limit your spending each holiday season because you are always budget conscious and want to focus on the spirit of the season. I hear that! I'm generally a bargain hunter myself.
However, if you are looking for handcrafted Buddhist gifts and meditation favors, your home or altar, or someone you love, Shakya Handicraft has a variety of stunning options. And the prices are more than reasonable for the quality of the craftsmanship they provide.
Shakya Handicraft dispatches items via express delivery within two working days of receiving your order. Customs duties are subject to your country's rules and regulations, but they can send items as gifts, so you can benefit from the gift tax exemption.
It usually takes five to seven days for an order to be placed and then you have a 14-day return window.
You can search the entire Shakya Handicraft collection here. I hope you will enjoy their offers and find something that you love, for yourself or for the spiritually inclined people in your life!
