Tibetan Buddhist wall prayer wheel
Tibetan buddhist wall prayer wheel on a spindle made from wood and metal. Could be hanged on a wall and use as traditional prayer wheels such as one on the walls of monastries or one can just use it as wall decoration.
The mantra Om Mani Padme Hum is written in Sanskrit and written in and outside of the wheel. A
