☛ TORMA: WHAT IS TORMA
Torma (Skt: Balingta, Tib: Tor-ma, Wylie: gtor ma) are figures made mostly of flour and butter used in tantric rituals or as offerings in Tibetan Buddhism. They may be dyed in different colors, often with white or red for the main body of the torma. They are made in specific shapes based on their purpose, usually conical in form. A very large, central shrine torma may be constructed for festivals, though typically they are small and placed directly on a shrine, on a plate, mounted on leather or held on a special base like a skull.

☛ FULL ELECTRO GOLD PLATED
This Offering Bowls & Bhumpas of Torma has been finished in Full Electro Gold plated finishing. Mr. Suman Shakya a master craftsman and plating expert has helped us in Gold plating this Torma.
This is a modern and healthier medium of gold plating, here the gold plating is done by flowing electric current between two metals. This kind of gold plating is very cheap in comparison to the traditional fire Gold plating, but due to advances in technology, the difference in the quality of gold plating between the two is decreasing.
In this process, the statue is first plated with silver, and then later plated with gold.
