Overview — A compact “Pim Lek” Khampi style amulet, made in Nur Phong Dam (black sacred powder) and attributed in the listing to Chao Khun Tieng (CK Tieng) of Wat Rakang Kositaram, dated BE2507.
Why This Piece Matters
If you like Wat Rakang pieces that feel “quiet but solid,” this is that kind of amulet. “Khampi” is often used by collectors to describe a scripture-inspired style—simple, classic, and meant to be carried close. The “Pim Lek” (small mold) size makes it easy to wear daily, and Nur Phong Dam gives it that deep, aged look that many collectors love.

Historical Background
Wat Rakang Kositaram is one of the most talked-about temples in Thai amulet collecting, largely because it is closely linked to Somdej Toh and the Somdej tradition. Long after Somdej Toh’s era, the temple continued issuing devotional pieces that keep that heritage alive. This listing places the amulet in BE2507 under Chao Khun Tieng (CK Tieng), a senior monk known for maintaining the Wat Rakang lineage in the modern period.
The listing does not provide a formal “release name” (รุ่น) or ceremony details, so the safest collector approach is simple: treat the year and attribution as the stated identity, and verify by comparing mold traits, surface character, and overall feel against accepted references for BE2507 Khampi Pim Lek in Nur Phong Dam.
Sacred Composition (What Collectors Look For)
“Nur Phong Dam” is the key material note in this listing. In collector language, black sacred powder pieces are usually assessed by texture, natural aging, and how the surface holds detail—especially around the edges and the raised areas. Since the exact ingredients aren’t listed here, it’s better to focus on what can be observed:
- Surface tone: deep black to charcoal, often with natural variation.
- Powder “body”: should look compact and consistent, not overly glossy or artificial.
- Wear pattern: raised points and edges usually tell the most honest story.
Design Characteristics
- Pim Lek size: small, compact, easy to wear daily.
- Khampi style: a clean “scripture-inspired” look that feels formal and classic.
- Overall vibe: understated — collectors often describe it as “simple but powerful.”
Traditional Spiritual Attributes
In Thai practice, Wat Rakang pieces are often worn as “foundation amulets”—for steady protection and a calm, stable presence. People also associate Khampi-style pieces with clarity of mind and disciplined focus. As always, devotees frame results through merit-making (บุญ), right conduct, and respect for the lineage.
- คุ้มครอง (Protection): steady safeguarding for daily life and travel.
- เมตตา (Metta): smoother interactions and better “people luck.”
- สติ (Mindfulness): a reminder to keep the mind clear and grounded.
Collectibility Notes
This listing does not mention certification, batch documentation, or numbered release details—so collectibility should be judged mainly on reference matching and condition. The Pim Lek format is popular because it’s wearable, and the Nur Phong Dam look appeals to collectors who prefer darker, aged surfaces.
