From the Phala family collection in Switzerland. According to the family history this dorje has been found in the treasure Yanggam of Khyugram Theiji in 1940 after he was charged with treatery and condemned. Mr Phala, at the time Lord Chamberlain of the Dalai Lama, bought it later from the Tibetan government. Hence by descent.
