Antique Indian Gujarat Hand Carved Temple Carving Statue Depicting a Woman
Located in Yonkers, NY
An antique Indian early 20th century hand carved architectural temple carving from Gujarat, depicting a smiling woman. Originating from Gujarat, India, this antique early 20th-century hand-carved architectural temple carving is a captivating depiction of a smiling woman. This exquisite sculpture captures the essence of traditional Indian artistry, with the woman carved in a frontal position while her legs are delicately portrayed in profile. Her serene expression, enhanced by a slight tilt of her head, radiates a sense of calm and contentment. The intricate details of her headdress, attire, and jewelry highlight the craftsmanship and cultural richness of the region.
The woman's features are beautifully rendered, showcasing a blend of grace and elegance. The carving, with its weathered appearance, speaks to its historical significance and journey through time. The back of the sculpture remains unfinished, adding an authentic touch to its architectural origins, as it was likely meant to be a part of a larger structure or placed against a wall.
This temple carving serves as a striking decorative piece, perfect for adding an exotic and cultural element to any interior space. Whether displayed in a living room, hallway, or study, it brings a sense of history and artistry to the environment. Its craftsmanship and evocative presence make it a conversation piece, inviting viewers to appreciate the skill and cultural significance embedded in this work of art. This early 20th-century Indian temple carving...

Han Dynasty Polychromed Horse and Rider
Located in Dallas, TX
A fine Han dynasty polychrome painted terracotta horse and rider. The warrior is dressed in orange and black on a black horse.
Measures: Height 14 inches (35 cm)
Width 12.5 inches (32 cm).
Condition: Excellent with tastefully undetectable repairs.
During the unification of China under the Han dynasty, bands of mounted nomadic warriors from the north threatened the country. In order to thwart their attacks, the Chinese sought to import stronger, faster steeds from Central Asia (as opposed to the Mongol ponies used by the invaders), eventually leading to the creation of the Silk Road. This small sculpture of a mounted soldier reveals the crucial military role of the horse. When compared to the diminutive stature of the rider, the importance of the horse becomes readily apparent. This creature provided security and strength, allowing the empire to secure its borders and expand its influences across Central Asia. The magnificent regalia of the horse, including a brilliantly painted saddle in red and green/gold, reflect the respect this animal received. The warrior as well is gorgeously decorated with a painted red tunic and gray chest...

Over Life-Size Tibetan Gilt Bronze Arm of a Bodhisattva, Late 19th Century
Located in Austin, TX
An impressive larger than life-size cast and gilt bronze left hand and arm of a bodhisattva, late 19th century or earlier, Tibet.
The over-sized arm and hand of graceful proportions. The arm tapering down to a slender wrist embellished with a simple bracelet hiding the join between the hand and arm. The hand and arm richly gilt. The join to the elbow visible and exposed.
The hand heavily cast, with nice detail to the fingernails and cuticles. The palm with simple incised lines. The hand, with the pointer and pinky fingers raised, and the middle and ring finger folded down touching the thumb, performs the gesture known as karana mudra, the gesture of dispelling evil. (Here in Texas we refer to this gesture as "Hook'em Horns!")
Karana mudra is often associated with Avalokiteshvara, the bodhisattva of compassion, known in Tibet as Chenrezig, and in China as Guanyin.
The hand and arm would originally have been part of a much larger sculpture. Unfortunately many Tibetan Buddhist sculptures...

Hand Carved Indian Temple Carving Statue from Gujarat Depicting Mother and Child
Located in Yonkers, NY
An Indian early 20th century hand carved architectural temple carving from Gujarat, depicting a mother and her child with nicely weathered patina. Crafted in the Western portion of India, in the culturally rich state of Gujarat, this early 20th-century hand-carved temple sculpture captures the tender bond between a mother and her child. The mother, adorned with a delicate headdress and detailed clothing and jewelry, stands in a dignified, frontal position. Her small child, clinging affectionately to her flank and grasping her dress, turns his head back towards us, a big smile illuminating his face. This heartwarming scene is beautifully rendered with a keen attention to detail, showcasing the artisan's skill and devotion.
The sculpture's nicely weathered patina, along with traces of polychrome, lends it an air of antiquity and authenticity. The piece's unfinished back hints at its original architectural context, meant to be viewed from the front as it adorned a sacred space.
Ideal for a variety of settings, this temple carving will enliven any wall, bringing a touch of historical and cultural depth to your home. Its charming depiction of maternal love, combined with its rich textures and colors, makes it a captivating focal point. Whether displayed in a living room, hallway, or study, this early 20th-century Indian temple carving...
