The figure is seated in a graceful pose while playing a traditional string instrument, symbolizing harmony, beauty, and the performing arts in Southeast Asian mythology.
This sculptural style draws from the classical imagery of the Apsara, a divine dancer and musician, and the Kinnari, the Thai celestial female renowned for music and devotion. The result is a timeless decorative piece that elevates both traditional and contemporary interiors — especially Asian eclectic, bohemian luxe, and Hollywood Regency spaces.

Solid bronze with excellent age-appropriate patina. Traces of the original gilding remain throughout the costume and crown, adding texture and depth. Felt pads were added to the underside to protect furniture surfaces.
