Front

Mutovka arrives at a festive gathering in a chestnut chuba with a turquoise sash. He holds a wooden bowl of butter tea close to himself, while a travelling churn stays in a case at his waist. The large curl of tea material remains uncovered, connecting the festive outfit to his own form regardless of clothing.

Before a gathering in Lhasa, Mutovka carefully holds warm butter tea. A pale brocade robe and white khata remain a ceremonial artistic interpretation; the gesture is not presented as a required wedding ritual.

Front

Mutovka adjusts the collar of a blue ceremonial robe before a personal tea visit. A teapot is attached at his waist and is not interpreted as a ritual vase; the colour, pattern and ensemble remain an artistic adaptation of the Lhasa / Ü-Tsang direction.

Original form

Character starts with form.

One soft continuous curl of tea grows at the back of a rounded honey-ochre head. Black eyes express the character without a mouth.
