An exceptional ritual piece - Contractual photos - Unique piece
I created this Shamanic Bracelet dedicated to the serpent totem as a Himalayan ritual object, a powerful shamanic artifact where the strength of the serpent, the memory of the bone, the protection of Dzi beads, and the wrathful energy of Vajrayana tantric Buddhism meet. Designed as a rare ritual bracelet, it symbolically accompanies spiritual practices, meditation, energetic protection, shamanic rituals, and inner transformation processes.
A collector's item and spiritual jewel, this Shamanic Bracelet is at once a handcrafted bracelet, an esoteric bracelet, a totem bracelet, and a talisman bracelet. It was designed to connect the wearer to the forces of the serpent, but also to a more intimate energy: that of shedding, passage, and the transmutation of poison into wisdom.
Foreword – The meeting of Shamanism and Himalayan Tantric Buddhism
This Shamanic Bracelet was born from a vision: to bring together in a single spiritual artifact two ancient traditions that, over time, have coexisted, dialogued, and sometimes merged in the sacred space of the Himalayas. Himalayan shamanism, rooted in ancient Bön practices, like the Dao, carries primitive wisdom, a direct connection with nature, spirits, animal forces, and invisible powers. Vajrayana tantric Buddhism, for its part, established itself in these same valleys, bringing its profound rituals, its wrathful protectors, its symbols of transformation, and its vision of transcendent emptiness.
By uniting these two dimensions in a single Himalayan ritual object, this Shamanic Bracelet embodies, in my opinion, the link between earthly power and spiritual momentum, between the instinctive world of the serpent and the tantric path of transmutation. The naturalized white cobra head evokes the bone-serpent, guardian of the threshold, an animal of shedding, purification, and initiatory passage. In its mouth, the Dzi bead transforms the energy of the bracelet. The cobra consecrates a bead of light, as if venom became medicine and the bite transformed into wisdom.
The three-eyed Tibetan Dzi, encircled with 925 silver, reinforces this protective and spiritual dimension. It evokes the harmony between Heaven, Earth, and Humanity, inner prosperity, accomplishment, and active protection. The Acala Buddha recalls the unmoving strength of tantric fire, which cuts through obstacles and consumes illusions. The stylized skull carved from deer antler refers to impermanence, stripping away, and regeneration, while the snake-head Guru bead connects the whole to an energy of vigilance, mastery, and passage.
Mixing shamanism and tantric Buddhism is a way of reminding us that spiritual traditions, far from opposing each other, can respond to and complement each other. This Shamanic Bracelet should be seen as a ritual meditation bracelet, a protective talisman, and a collector's spiritual jewel, capable of accompanying both a shamanic purification rite and a Buddhist tantric meditation focused on inner transformation.
In this new creation, the dominant energy is initiatory. This Shamanic Bracelet invites us to overcome fears, purify attachments, shed an old skin, and transform inner poison into conscious strength, lucidity, and wisdom.
⚒️ Composition and technical details of this Shamanic Bracelet dedicated to the serpent totem
As a graduate gemologist from the National Gemology Institute, Paris, France, all materials composing this Shamanic Bracelet have been examined, expertly appraised, and certified as natural.
Naturalized white cobra head, holding a sacred Dzi bead in its mouth: symbol of shedding, protection, purification, and transmutation of poison into wisdom.
This cobra head, with its almost bone-like white color, evokes the initiatory serpent, the guardian of the threshold, and the animal totem linked to profound spiritual passages.
Dzi bead placed in the cobra's mouth → Tibetan talisman of luminous protection, symbolically consecrated by the serpent's mouth.
Here, the cobra does not bite: it guards, transmits, and transforms. The Dzi bead becomes like a seed of light held between the serpent's fangs, reminding us that venom can become medicine when instinctive energy is mastered.
16 buffalo bone spacers, separated by copper discs → ancestral memory, animal strength, ritual structure, and energetic conduction.
Buffalo bone brings a powerful, archaic, and protective presence to this Shamanic Bracelet, while copper acts as a metal of circulation, warmth, and transmission.
Nan Hong Agate Discs → inner fire, vitality, and warm protection.
This rare and sought-after red agate from Yunnan is prized for its deep color and visual power. In this ritual bracelet, it balances the whiteness of the cobra and bone with an energy of blood, fire, and life.
Guru bead in the shape of a snake's head → carved from deer antler, initiatory continuity with the white cobra.
Placed as a point of passage and recentering, this Guru bead reinforces the link with the serpent totem, inner vigilance, spiritual shedding, and mastery of symbolic venom.
Three-eyed Tibetan Dzi encircled with 925 silver → active protection, spiritual prosperity, and harmony between Heaven, Earth, and Humanity.
This three-eyed Dzi gives this Shamanic Bracelet a balanced, luminous energy, focused on accomplishment, stability, and inner openness.
Acala Buddha head carved in deer antler → wrathful guardian of the unshakeable.
Acala, a major figure in tantric Buddhism, embodies the unmoving fire that cuts through obstacles, consumes illusions, and protects the practitioner on their spiritual path. Its presence gives this bracelet a direct, profound, and protective Vajrayana force.
Stylized skull carved in deer antler → tantric meditation on impermanence, stripping away, and regeneration.
Deer antler, an organic material linked to the cycle of shedding and regrowth, reinforces the idea of transformation: losing the old, going through trials, being reborn in a more conscious form.
Sacred symbols of Vajrayana Buddhism:
A silver phurba, ritual dagger of Vajrayana Buddhism, symbol of transmutation, protection, and stabilization of chaotic forces. In this Shamanic Bracelet, the phurba acts as a sacred blade intended to symbolically nail down obstacles, cut through negative influences, and transform disturbing energies into controlled spiritual force.
A head of Acala Buddha carved from deer antler, wrathful guardian of the unshakeable, tantric protector associated with the fire of wisdom that consumes illusions. In this Shamanic Bracelet, Acala embodies unmoving strength, spiritual will, and the ability to cut through internal and external obstacles.
A stylized ritual skull, recalling emptiness, impermanence, and the transformation of attachments.
Three handcrafted multicoloured tassels, reminiscent of Tibetan practices, votive offerings, and the subtle flows of body, speech, and mind.
Assembly of this Shamanic Bracelet: ultra-resistant, invisible but strong silicone stretch cord, designed to maintain the bracelet's structure while retaining good flexibility when worn.
Total weight of this Shamanic Bracelet: 90 grams
By its presence, its materials and its symbolic architecture, this bracelet should be seen as a massive and powerful ritual piece, conceived not as a simple piece of jewelry, but as a true shamanic and tantric talisman dedicated to the serpent totem.
🔮 Symbolism and energies of this Shamanic Bracelet
This Shamanic Bracelet is a true concentration of ritual, animal, bone, mineral, and tantric energies. Each element composing it acts as a fragment of sacred language: the naturalized white cobra head, the Tibetan Dzi beads, buffalo bone, copper, nan hong agate, deer antler, the silver phurba, the Acala Buddha, the stylized skull, and the three multicolored tassels together form a complex spiritual artifact, designed for protection, purification, inner transformation, and meditation.
This Shamanic Bracelet should be understood as a Himalayan ritual object dedicated to the serpent totem. Its dominant energy is that of shedding, initiatory passage, and the transmutation of poison into wisdom.
🐍 The naturalized white Cobra – Bone-serpent, guardian of the threshold and shedding energy
The naturalized white cobra head is the centerpiece of this Shamanic Bracelet. In many shamanic, tantric, and esoteric traditions, the serpent represents vital power, hidden energy, kundalini, transformation, and the ability to be reborn after shedding an old skin.
Here, the cobra is white, like a serpent returned from the world of the dead to become guardian of the passage. This white color gives it a particular presence, at once spectral, initiatory, and purifying. It evokes the bone-serpent, the messenger of thresholds, the one who accompanies profound mutations of the being.
In this Shamanic Bracelet, the white cobra symbolizes vigilance, spiritual shedding, the purification of old fears, and the transformation of inner venom. It represents mastery of danger, the ability to transform an instinctive force into conscious wisdom.
Wearing this Shamanic Bracelet symbolically means agreeing to enter a cycle of passage: to shed an old skin, to examine one's shadow areas, to purify attachments, and to allow a clearer, more lucid, more controlled force to emerge.
👁️ The Dzi bead in the cobra's mouth – Venom turned into light
In the mouth of the white cobra lies a sacred Dzi bead. This choice profoundly transforms the energy of the bracelet.
The cobra does not bite the bead: it guards it, consecrates it, transmits it. The serpent's mouth then becomes a symbolic passage between venom and light. The Dzi bead placed between the fangs acts like a spiritual seed held by the animal totem, as if the dangerous energy of the serpent is transformed into inner medicine.
This Shamanic Bracelet expresses here one of its central ideas: poison is transmuted. Fear, anger, wounds, trials, and chaotic forces can become instruments of lucidity when integrated with consciousness.
The presence of the Dzi in the cobra's mouth thus gives this bracelet an energy of luminous protection. It is no longer just about repelling negative influences, but about transforming what disturbs, what hurts, or what inwardly poisons into controlled spiritual force.

👁️👁️👁️ The three-eyed Tibetan Dzi – Active protection, prosperity and Heaven-Earth-Human harmony
The three-eyed Tibetan Dzi, encircled with 925 silver, brings a dimension of balance, prosperity, and accomplishment to this Shamanic Bracelet. The three-eyed Dzi acts here as a harmonizing talisman.
The three eyes are interpreted as the union of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity. They evoke a complete vision, a circulation between planes, an ability to find balance between the material world, inner strength, and the spiritual dimension.
In this Shamanic Bracelet, the three-eyed Dzi reinforces active protection, but also openness to spiritual prosperity, stability, and accomplishment. The 925 silver casing brings a precious and luminous dimension, as if each eye of the Dzi was surrounded by a protective metallic sheen.
This Dzi thus becomes a center of observation and blessing: it watches, it balances, it accompanies the wearer in their inner transformation.
💀 Buffalo bone and deer antler – Ancestral memory, impermanence, and regeneration
The 16 buffalo bone spacers give this Shamanic Bracelet its archaic, dense, and ritual presence. Bone is a material of memory. It recalls the deep structure of the living, the strength of ancestors, death, impermanence, and the invisible continuity between generations.
In shamanic traditions, bone is a trace, a support, a condensed memory. It conveys the idea that all true transformation involves stripping away. Sometimes it is necessary to return to the skeletal framework of being, to what remains when the superfluous disappears.
Deer antler, used for the head of Acala Buddha and for the stylized skull, extends this symbolism while adding the idea of regeneration. Deer shed their antlers and see them regrow: this material therefore evokes shedding, renewal, cyclical rebirth.
In this Shamanic Bracelet, buffalo bone and deer antler unite two forces: the memory of what remains and the ability to be reborn after trials.
🔥 Nan Hong Agate – Inner fire, vitality, and warm protection
The nan hong agate discs bring a red, warm, vital, and protective energy to the bracelet. Their intense color contrasts with the whiteness of the cobra and bone, creating a powerful balance between initiatory death and the fire of life.
In this Shamanic Bracelet, nan hong agate acts as an inner ember. It warms the whole, nurtures determination, strengthens confidence, and brings a vibration of prosperity, courage, and vital energy.
Its presence prevents the bracelet from becoming solely spectral or funerary. The white cobra, bone, and deer antler speak of transition, stripping away, and impermanence; the nan hong agate reminds us that every true shedding leads to a new intensity of life.
It is the symbolic blood of the bracelet, its internal fire, the warmth that accompanies transformation.
🕉️ Acala Buddha – Wrathful fire, protection, and unwavering will
The head of Acala Buddha carved from deer antler is one of the most important elements of this Shamanic Bracelet. In Vajrayana Tantric Buddhism, Acala is a wrathful figure, an unwavering protector, associated with the fire of wisdom that consumes illusions and cuts through obstacles.
His presence gives the bracelet a direct spiritual strength. Acala does not represent ordinary anger, but a sacred, lucid anger aimed at liberation. He embodies inner discipline, stability in the face of disturbances, the ability to remain still when chaotic forces seek to unbalance us.
In this Shamanic Bracelet, Acala acts as the guardian of transformation. The serpent brings shedding, the Dzi brings protection, the bone reminds of impermanence, but Acala provides the strength to face the ordeal without retreating.

🗡️ The Silver Phurba – Ritual blade of transmutation and stabilization
The silver phurba gives this Shamanic Bracelet a sharper, more ritualistic orientation, more directly linked to the mastery of chaotic forces.
In Vajrayana Buddhism, the phurba is a ritual dagger used symbolically to pin down obstacles, immobilize negative influences, and stabilize disturbing energies. It is not a profane weapon, but a tantric instrument of transformation.
In this bracelet, the phurba acts as a sacred blade. It cuts through fears, fixes wandering forces, channels tensions, and transforms unstable energies into controlled spiritual power.
Associated with the white cobra, the Dzi, and Acala, the phurba reinforces the central idea of this Shamanic Bracelet: dangerous force is not destroyed, it is disciplined. Chaos is not simply repelled, it is stabilized. Poison is not just avoided, it is transmuted.

💀 The stylized skull – Emptiness, impermanence, and initiatory passage
The stylized skull carved from deer antler recalls one of the great tantric meditations: impermanence. In a ritual object, the skull is not a morbid symbol, but a reminder of lucidity. It teaches that everything passes, that every form transforms, that every fixed identity must one day be abandoned.
In this Shamanic Bracelet, the skull acts as a silent mirror. It reminds us that inner transformation sometimes requires symbolically dying to an old version of oneself.
Its material, deer antler, adds an essential nuance: impermanence is not only loss, it is also regeneration. What falls can grow back. What disappears can return in another form.
The skull and the white cobra thus speak the same language: stripping away, passage, shedding, rebirth.
🐍 The Snake Guru Bead – Initiatory axis and continuity of the totem
The Guru bead in the shape of a snake's head connects the entire symbolic structure of the bracelet. It echoes the white cobra's head and confirms that this Shamanic Bracelet is indeed dedicated to the serpent totem.
In a mala or a ritual bracelet, the Guru bead marks a point of return, passage, and recentering. Here, its serpentine shape makes it an initiatory axis. It reminds us that the serpent's energy is not limited to the cobra's head: it circulates throughout the entire bracelet.
This Guru bead symbolizes vigilance, continuity, mastery of instinctive energy, and constant return to the center. It unites the serpent's shedding, the Dzi's protection, Acala's fire, and the memory of the bone.
🟠 Copper – Circulation, warmth, and energetic transmission
The copper discs placed between the buffalo bone elements play a subtle but essential role. Copper is a metal of circulation, warmth, transmission, and connection.
In this Shamanic Bracelet, it acts as a symbolic conductor between materials: it connects bone to agate, serpent to Dzi, fire to memory, protection to transformation. Its warm hue complements the red of the nan hong agate and balances the whiteness of the cobra and bone.
Copper gives the bracelet a flowing energy. It prevents the symbols from remaining separate from each other: it makes them circulate within a single ritual architecture.
🌈 The three multicolored tassels – Body, speech, mind, and votive offerings
The three traditional handcrafted multicolored tassels recall Tibetan practices, ritual malas, votive offerings, and prayer flags.
In this Shamanic Bracelet, their number can be interpreted as an evocation of the three doors: body, speech, and mind. They extend the bracelet's energy outwards, like three subtle flows descending from the artifact into the manifest world.
Their presence brings movement, color, and ritual dimension. They remind us that this bracelet is not just an object worn on the wrist, but a support for prayer, meditation, purification, and intention.
✨ Energetic Synthesis of this Shamanic Bracelet
This Shamanic Bracelet is a talisman of protection, purification, and transmutation. It unites the instinctive power of the white cobra, the luminous protection of the Dzi beads, the ancestral memory of the bone, the vital fire of the nan hong agate, the tantric discipline of Acala, the stabilizing blade of the phurba, the meditation on impermanence of the skull, and the initiatory continuity of the snake Guru bead.
Its energy is deeply initiatory. This bracelet symbolically accompanies those who are going through a period of change, rupture, purification, or inner reconstruction.
It can be seen as a ritual meditation bracelet, an esoteric protection bracelet, a shamanic talisman bracelet, a collectible spiritual jewel, and a Himalayan tantric artifact.
At the heart of this Shamanic Bracelet, one idea dominates: poison can become wisdom. The serpent becomes a guide. Venom becomes medicine. Bone becomes a support for rebirth. The phurba stabilizes force. Acala illuminates the path.
This Shamanic Bracelet dedicated to the serpent totem is therefore a rare ritual piece, designed for those who seek a powerful protective object, but also a companion for inner transformation, spiritual shedding, and a passage towards more lucid consciousness.
✨ A spiritual and ritual artifact
This Shamanic Bracelet is designed as a spiritual artifact. Through the presence of the naturalized white cobra, Tibetan Dzi beads, buffalo bone, deer antler, silver phurba, Acala Buddha, and three traditional tassels, it is rooted in a profound ritual dimension, at the crossroads of Himalayan shamanism and Vajrayana Tantric Buddhism.
It can be seen as a Himalayan ritual bracelet, a Buddhist tantric bracelet, a protection bracelet, and a talisman bracelet dedicated to the serpent totem, symbolically usable in:
