Altar table - Wood - Nepal - Meditation table

This beautiful folding wooden meditation table is the same type of table used in Buddhist monasteries for practice, meditation and reading texts. Crafted by hand, it is characterized by a rich carved and painted decoration, with two elephants depicted on the front panel, surrounded by traditional ornamental motifs and details in tones of red, green, gold and natural wood. The table can be used during meditative practice as a support for Tibetan bells, mala, incense and other practice objects, but also to rest sacred texts, Buddhist books or sādhana during reading and recitation. The folding structure makes it particularly functional: it can be easily opened when needed and closed to be stored or transported, occupying only 11 cm of depth. The combination of its traditional function, artisanal craftsmanship and the richness of the decorations makes this table a valuable element to create a space dedicated to meditation, study and Buddhist practice.
