Model of Chinese Beauty Pink Rose Quartz Goddess Quan Yin Hand Carved Figurine

About the Item

Exquisitely hand made and hand carved pink rose quartz figurine of the goddess Quan Yin. She is depicted holding a festoon of lotus blossoms and stands on a hand made and hand carved rosewood stand. Quan Yin also spelled Kwan Yin, Kuanyin or Guanyin is one of the deities most frequently seen on altars in China’s temples. Among Buddhist gods, she is loved rather than feared and is the model of Chinese beauty and is regarded by the Chinese as the goddess of mercy and compassion, Virgin Mary. She is known as hearing the cries of the world. She is one of the San Ta Shih, or the Three Great Beings, renowned for their power over the animal kingdom or the forces of nature. Quan Yin is a shortened form of a name that means One Who Sees and Hears the Cry from the human world. Her Chinese title signifies, “She who always observes or pays attention to sounds,” i.e., she who hears prayers. Worshiped especially by women, this goddess comforts the troubled, the sick, the lost, the senile and the unfortunate. Her popularity has grown such through the centuries that she is now also regarded as the protector of seafarers, farmers and travelers. For all of these reasons, she would make the perfect addition to any home or office. Measures approximately 10" high x 3.5" wide.
