Kannon Bosatsu 観音菩薩 Kwan Yin Statue with Gyokugan 玉眼 (Glass eyes) - Sculpture Wood - Japan - Meiji period or Later

【Important notes】 ・International Buyers: Import duties, taxes, and charges are not included in the item price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer’s responsibility. ・Please check with your country’s customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding/buying. These duties are paid to your country's customs office and not to us. Prompt payment of these fees is necessary to ensure delivery of your item. 【Product details】 From the serene contemplation of Kwan Yin (Kannon Bosatsu), the Bodhisattva of compassion, this Meiji-period or later sculpture resonates with the quiet strength of Japanese spiritual artistry. Skillfully hand-carved from wood, the figure exudes a sense of calm and benevolence, seated in a meditative pose that invites reflection. The statue exhibits signs of its historical journey—its halo and the object in the left hand show signs of breakage and loss. Time has graced the sculpture with a patina of wear including dirt, chips, lacquer cracks, discoloration, and evidence of wood-boring insects at the base. These details, while emphasizing its authenticity and age, do not detract from the profound aura of the piece. Please examine the photographs carefully to understand the current condition of this venerable piece. Despite these marks of antiquity, the statue maintains a powerful presence, a testament to its craftsmanship and sacred significance. Dimension: approx. H 24 cm W 11 cm D 10.2 cm ・Please make sure to review all the provided information and images before placing your bid. ・We make every effort to accurately represent the product's colors and textures in our photos. However, due to differences in monitors and device displays, as well as photographic conditions, slight color variations between the photos and the actual product may occur. We ask for your understanding in advance. Thank you for your interest, and happy bidding!
