Condition
The figure is finely and heavily cast, the base is open. There are several small casting flaws to the back of the lotus base including a ca. 2cm wide crack where the upper part of the base joins the lotus petals on the base. There are small losses to the stone inlays. There are traces of gilding to the neck, chin and ears. The metal is patinated toa darker, more saturated colour than the catalogue illustration suggests.
