A fine carving of Kwan Yin (Guanyin) from a single branch of exceedingly rare angel skin coral. Kwan Yin is a Chinese Boddhisatva associated with compassion. From Wikipedia: "Some Buddhists believe that when one of their adherents departs from this world, they are placed by Guanyin in the heart of a lotus and then sent to the western pure land of Sukhāvatī.[4] Guanyin is often referred to as the "most widely beloved Buddhist Divinity"[5] with miraculous powers to assist all those who pray to her, as is mentioned in the Pumen chapter of the Lotus Sutra and the Kāraṇḍavyūha Sūtra."
Proudly presented by Guy Lyman Fine Art, New Orleans.
