Asian Statue
Hollow iron Happy Buddha. Pu-Tai, a Chinese monk nicknamed "Laughing Buddha," was known for his protruding stomach, constant laugh, and elongated earlobes seated on a lotus base with traces of dark green, red and brown and Chinese calligraphy. Covered with gold gilding.
Ancient Cycladic idol
Black basalt Cycladic figure of the Late Spedos Variety, the slender arms crossed left over right at the waist, the face carved, long flowing hair, stylized body. Also known as a Fiddle-Idol”, Cycladic figures are considered one of the finest products of the Bronze Age in the Cyclades, a group of fertile but dry isles off the southeastern coast of Greece in the Aegean Sea. The manufacture of these figures was simple and often depicted the abstract representation of the female form resembling a modern violin. Believing to represent death, the eyes and mouths are lacking, the arms folded, the gender perhaps representing the deceased’s wife or a Mother Goddess.

Carved light green Jade Kuan Yin, Chinese goddess of mercy, seated in meditation on a lotus base in an elaborate costume and crown, serene downcast expression, elongated earlobes, with six arms holding offerings including a flower, bell, ball. Traces of brown. Very beautiful and attractive.
