Tsatsa (also tsa-tsa, tsha-tsha) is a small sculptural votive offering used in Tibetan Buddhism. They are normally small plaques with decoration in relief, made in moulds with clay or rammed earth, but sometimes other materials such as metal may be used. They descend from similar Indian plaques made for pilgrims to Buddhist pilgrimage sites such as Bodh Gaya. In Bhutan the usual shape is a small chorten or stupa, also sometimes seen in Tibet, where it is a special funerary form.
