Losar 2026 Prep: Make your Dunzars shine

Tibetans across the world are busy in preparations for the upcoming Losar (New Year) that falls on February 18-20 this year.

Deep-cleaning of the house, washing the linens and curtains, making sure every corner and surface is sparkling clean, the to-do list is endless.

Tsering Topgyal, a Boston-based Tibetan content creator, has shared his tried-and-tested method (on his Facebook page) by which you can make your silver Dunzars (water offering bowls) sparkle and shine like new.

And what’s unique is that his method is completely natural and safe for the environment. Watch this video to see the surprise ingredient.

Popularly known as Tsetop, he owns a popular store named Tibet’s Jinten near Harvard University in Boston, Massachusetts.

The store specializes in Tibetan/Himalayan and Buddhist items such as statues, shawls, jewelry, etc. You can shop from a wide variety of curios by clicking here.
