A BOXWOOD FIGURE OF GUANYIN, TRANSITIONAL PERIOD

China, 17th-18th century. Finely carved, the bodhisattva standing atop a base carved with a lotus blossom, clasping the wrist of one hand with the other, holding mala (rosery) beads. Enveloped in voluminous robes falling in elegant folds around her, her benevolent face is depicted with downcast eyes, full lips, and pendulous ear lobes, her hair tied in a tall chignon under a veil.

Provenance: Viennese private collection, acquired in the French antiques market. Old collector’s label ‘242’ at the chest.
Condition: Good condition with minor wear, natural age cracks, few small nicks, and a minor chip to the rim of the base. The wood has a superb naturally grown, warm patina with a dark red color.

Weight: 604 g
Dimensions: Height 29.7 cm
