The figure of the Bodhisattva stands on a base of swirling clouds, her rounded face with downcast eyes and a serene expression, the upswept hair held in a topknot, crisply moulded with her hands concealed under voluminous robes falling in naturalistic folds and adorned with a beaded necklace across the chest, covered with a milky glaze pooling to a pale blue in the recesses,(tiny nicks to extremities)
17 1/4 in. (43.8 cm.) high
