AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Heavy devotional bronze or copper alloy statue depicting Guanyin, the goddess of compassion and mercy, shown seated in meditation on an elaborate lotus blossom throne.
The figure holds in the left hand the classic sacred bottle, symbol of the nectar of wisdom and healing, while the right hand in the reassuring gesture of protection. Behind her rises a large mandorla or openwork halo, decorated with stylized flame motifs. On the base there is a four-character mark within a square cartouche referring to the reign of the Qianlong emperor 1736–1795. As usual for this type of devotional and commercial bronzes, the mark is to be considered apocryphal. The fabrication is presumed to be in the 20th century or in the late Qing period.
The object presents a beautiful dark patina and natural signs of aging that testify to its workmanship and history. Solid casting and substantial weight for collectors of Asian art or as a spiritual decor element.
Dimensions: 11.5 × 9.5 cm, height 20 cm, weight 1501 grams.
Tracked worldwide shipping with rigid packaging and insurance.
