Chinese Ming Dynasty Dehua Buddha GuanYin. This statue of Buddha Guanyin potted in a Peaceful face, smiling, beautiful and youthful, giving a peaceful appearance, body painted naturally over white glazed colour. Adorned with flowing silks of various garments and jewel ornaments, crowns and tiaras. Buddha is shown Avalokiteshvara posture with the left leg is bent relaxed and the other is raised up supported by sole, the both hands crossing in front the abdomen. Dehua have a fine, grained, vitreous, white body that seems to have been entirely made from a pulverized local porcelain stone; it is embraced by a thick, satiny glaze that ranges in tone from milky white through warm ivory to a faint rosy hue. There is a large variety of blanc de chine vessels, including numerous objects for the writing table, but the many porcelain figures that often represent Buddhist or Taoist deities are the most glamorous of these wares. Dehua ceramic sculptures vary considerably in quality; at best they exhibit a virtuosity of modelling that raises them to the rank of true masterpieces, with serene expression and fluid robes celebrating the skill of a master craftsman.Made in The Years Reign Period of The Great Ming Dynasty.
