Lot #169 16th/17th C, A Very Rare Silver-Inlaid Bronze Guanyin

The finely-cast goddess standing swaying to her left, her right hand gently resting on her left hand ( both hands are movable, resulting in a greater interest), both elegantly raised with her fingers beautifully coiled, her eyes downcast in meditative contemplation, the front chest is revealed with a 32-beaded silver-inlaid necklace. her looping robe flowing down to her bare feet well inlaid with scrolling bamboo and ruyi-clouds, along the hem draped around the shoulders. A four character mark (Xuan De Shi Sou) is inscribed on the back of the Guanyin statue. Height: 19.75"
