The Patroness of Compassion – Monumental Chinese Guanyin
A masterpiece of Chinese casting art. This monumental representation of Guanyin on a raised lotus base is a beacon of peace and compassion for any space.
Divine Presence: The Mandorla
This statue immediately stands out due to the impressive mandorla (the flame-shaped aura) that completely surrounds the Bodhisattva. This aura symbolizes the spiritual light and energy that Guanyin radiates. The figure itself sits in a serene meditative posture on a richly decorated lotus throne, which rests atop a cloud-like base. In the deeper parts of the bronze, clear traces of gold are still visible, indicating a rich historical finish.
Symbolicity of Guanyin
Guanyin, the "Hearer of the Cries of the World", is the most beloved Bodhisattva in the East. She symbolizes unconditional love and protection. With her right hand in a gesture of blessing, this statue brings an atmosphere of Feng Shui harmony and spiritual protection into the home. The massive weight of 3.5 kg underscores the quality and durability of this bronze alloy.
