Tara of Tarapith Coin
Tarapith brings the fierce and the maternal into the same devotional world. Beside the Dwarka River in Birbhum, Maa Tara's shrine is closely associated with the memory of Bamakhepa and the sacred ground around the temple. The place asks to be understood through those relationships, beyond the striking appearance of an image.

Have a design in mind?
Tell us about the coin you would like, your preferred metal and the occasion. We will discuss the design, availability and next steps with you.
Made to order · Minimum 20 pieces
Pair your chosen coin with a gift box. Artwork, box style and the itemised price are agreed with your quote.
Made to order: minimum 20 pieces of the same design and weight.
After your enquiry, we review the artwork and presentation with you, then send an itemised quote. The final price, taxes and delivery are confirmed in that quote. No payment is taken with an enquiry.
Identify Tara of this particular shrine
Provide the Tarapith reference the recipient recognises. Buddhist Tara, Tara Tarini and other sacred forms should keep their own identities.
Let a Bengali dedication carry the connection
A short checked inscription can accompany the image or place name. A card can explain a family visit or the reason Maa Tara matters to the recipient.
From a story to a keepsake
Start with the person receiving the gift and the story you want it to hold. A family reference, the exact name of a place or a short account of the occasion gives the enquiry a useful beginning. Include any preferred wording and say which details are essential. The finished artwork and presentation are agreed with you before production.
All curated orders are made to order, with a minimum of 20 pieces per design and weight. Coin preferences are 10g, 15g, 20g, 25g, 50g, 100g. Weight describes the metal quantity; dimensions, relief and finish are separate parts of the specification. An enquiry helps establish feasibility and does not reserve stock or confirm a delivery date.
The presentation can hold the words that do not fit on the object: who gave it, why the motif was chosen and which moment it remembers. We discuss the kit or box as part of the quote, with its price and tax shown separately from the coin. Custom artwork and other additional work is confirmed before you decide to proceed.
Check names, scripts and the proposed depiction with the people who know the intended context. A commercial commission does not establish a temple, religious body, artist or other institution’s approval. Where a different format would suit the recipient better, the enquiry can explore that too.
