Description
The following treasure is from the living estate of Ailene & Buddy Ford; noted dealers and lifelong collectors of exceptional antique & vintage heirlooms. The AEAA is exceptionally pleased to present this antique Chinese hand carved Rose Quartz statuette representing the revered Quanyin, with roses & birds. Our special figurine is finished in the latter 19th century style of the Qianlong Reign of the Qing Dynasty (1735-1796), and is not as frilly as the examples seen in the Early Republic period. This gorgeous rich Rose Quartz hardstone Quanyin sits 5.5 x 11 inches tall atop her carved Rosewood stand, and weighs 3# 6 oz. and is in spectacular condition. The significance of Quanyin is as important as any figure in the Buddhist religion. Known as the Mother of Mercy in the East, Quanyin (Kuan Yin) has been worshipped by Buddhists for thousands of years. She is the greatest of bodhisattvas and embodies the totality of compassion for all humanity.
