Tibetan Bronze and Gilt Temple Shrine Sculpture of Deity Bodhisattva White Tara
Located in Studio City, CA
This is a fantastic piece. Perhaps part of a Tibetan temple shrine at one time. Beautiful faded gilt coloring and patina. We believe this is the Tibeat figure of the white Tara, the goddess of great compassion. She is akin to the Chinese figure of Quan Yin.
We are listing as 20th century but could be older.
Nice size and weight.
Would be a great addition to any collection and sure to stand out in any setting. From a large collection of Chinese and Tibetan antiques...
