Hello Christopher, I’m glad that you chose Mearto for your online appraisal. Based on the images, this is: An antique bronze 'Kuan Yin' or 'Guanyin' from China, most likely from late 19th century. *Guanyin, Kwanyin, Guanshiyin or Guanyin Pusa is the Chinese interpretation of the bodhisattva Avalokiteśvara (the goddess of compassion and mercy). Besides, in Taoism she is seen as an immortal. Guanyin is the goddess of mercy and the sea. Guanyin is part of the three holy spirits from the Western Paradise, together with Mahasthamaprapta and Amitabha Buddha. The three holy ones are especially worshipped to save deceased loved ones from hell and to offer them access to the Western Paradise with the help of the three holy ones. The bronze statue presented here has an attractive green/brown patina with good expression. In good condition, without scratches/dents or other damage. Height: 11,5 " Retail prices may vary
