Kasthamandap Dharma Store Tibetan Hand Craving Om Mani Padme Hum Wall Hanging Prayer Wheel

This can be set upon a flat surface or hung on a wall - whichever location is handiest for turning! Mine did squeak a little at first; the prayer wheel spins on a metal rod, the base of that rod sits in a small hole in the wood frame, and as the rod turned it made a squeaking sound against the wood. This was easily fixed! I set the prayer wheel upright, lifted the rod&wheel a tiny bit (there's a bit of play up & down) and put just a drop of WD40 in the base hole, waited a few seconds, and wiped away any excess. Perfect! Silent lovely spin! Om Mane Padme Hums going out invisibly all over the place! Fun and joy both.

Very nice wheel and turn effortlessly, I love it . Thank you!

A bit larger than I envisioned. Nice ornament. Very pleased.

I love the prayer wheels I was raised to Betten Buddhist prayer wheels are very important to my family. We obviously can’t have huge walk around ones in the home so I was going to get this small 4 inch one for my Father’s Day present. The wheel doesn’t really satisfy me upon turning… It’s a bit awkward to roll - I would’ve put skateboard truck wheels on the wheels - but a nice decoration if you don’t practice the prayer.

There is certainly a sutra is contained inside. Quality is handmade, so expect variation in the build. Also worth mentioning that the red and blue “gems” are plastic dots. I’m still quite pleased for the price. It will be a part of my practice, as I leave for work and return home.

I purchased 2 of these, 1 for myself and 1 as a gift. Given the low price point, I was a bit concerned that they might be cheap looking but that is not the case. Now, no one is going to mistake these wheels as something individually made from the most precious materials by a monk who lives on a mountaintop in Nepal and has devoted his life to becoming an expert craftsman of prayer wheels, but they are attractive and I think most people would be pleased to hang one by the front door of their home.

Very nice looking. Not very sturdy or well built

Been wanting one of these forever. The size is about perfect. It can be attached to a wall with just one screw. Great to put near your door and spin coming and going. The spinning action was a bit wonky when it arrived, but I simply twisted it a little to adjust the alignment and it spins freely now.

Nicely made. Cute. Working well.

It came well wrapped and on time; it’s hung next to my front door. Thank you Dharma Store and the artisans for making such an authentic and beautiful piece.

Now, if I can find some way to connect the bird wheel so it turns the Tibetan prayer wheel.......

Great product

Product came wrapped well, but it’s crooked - the top piece is not even with the bottom. Also the wheel is quite loose, I’m worried it may fall out. Last, someone’s long black hair (not mine!) came wrapped around it.
