Attractive Chinese-style porcelain figure depicting Guanyin (Kwan Yin), the Buddhist bodhisattva of compassion.
The seated figure is beautifully modeled with a serene facial expression, gently closed eyes, carefully arranged hair, and flowing robes with deeply sculpted folds. She wears a beaded necklace and holds her hands gracefully in front of her.
Finished in a glossy ivory-white glaze with darker shading accentuating the details of the sculpture, reminiscent of traditional Chinese blanc de Chine porcelain.
An unusual keyhole- or double-lobed-shaped impressed symbol is present on the upper back. The figure has an open, unglazed base showing the hollow interior.
