The smaller case is recorded in the handwritten family ‘A Catalogue of
the Dineley Collection of Tibetiana and Associated Buddhistic Objects’,
early 1960s, p.153; bearing a label stating it is the ‘Ceremonial pen
holder of the Grand Abbot of the Tashilhunpo [Monastery]’.
The Panchen Lamas became the abbots of Tashilhunpo monastery, near
Shigatse, in the former Tsang Province of Central Tibet. Second only in
authority to the Dalai Lama within the Gelug tradition of Tibetan Buddhism,
the Panchen Lama lineage was established during the 16th century by
the Fifth Dalai Lama, when he first bestowed the title of Panchen, or ‘great
scholar’, on his own teacher, Lobsang Choekyi Gyaltsen (1570-1662).
