Amitayus (Tibetan: Ts'e dpag med) is known as the 'Buddha of Infinite Life' and the 'One who grants long life'. As one of the most popular deities from the Tibetan Buddhist pantheon, its typical iconography is recognised by the seated full-lotus posture, dhyanasana, with hands in meditation supporting a vessel known as a Kalasha which holds the elixir of immortality.

A very similar figure was sold in Christies Hong Kong, 28 may 2014, lot 3465
