Lost wax cast, hand traced on hot metal for much of the finer details, with delicate necklaces and flowing scarves lending a deep symmetric harmony to the upright posture. This profoundly contemplative statue renders the calm, serene, compassionate state of realized bodhicitta into an elegantly articulated form. The Dalai Lamas and Karmapas are the emanations of Avalokiteshvara. As his emanation, Chenrezig is considered the patron bodhisattva of Tibet. The statue has been consecrated and sealed with a Viswavajra copper plate. It's a small but rare Kangxi gilt bronze highly collectible for discerning collectors.
