Battered Antique Guan Yin -
Price:
$200
Location:
Thousand Oaks, CA
Description:
Mahalo Antiques of Honolulu, HELLO, released a certification of authenticity calling this a Sung Dynasty Chinese image of Buddha. On the other hand, Burbank, CA, Appraiser Erica Voogd-Phillips called it a possibly-16th-century figure of Guanyin. I've recreated her appraisal verbatim below, as I presume it's the more accurate. As you can see from the photos, this 12" tall x 9" large x 5.5" deep wooden statuary is very used, split, with flaking and dark paint, one hand missing out on, and extensive pest damage; it has been sprayed to stop the damage. I'm not attempting to conceal anything-- this is one battered piece of spiritual art! However whether you're interested in purchasing it on a gamble and getting your own appraisal, or you just desire an interesting little bit of antique Chinese statuary as a curio or object of veneration, it's probably worth more than you'll spend for it right here-- I'm asking for a cost below its appraised value since of its shabby condition. $200, money just, no shipping; I will eliminate this advertisement when the statue has been sold, so there's no have to ask about availability. Please be considerate and just text or call in between 9am-9pm; e-mail's constantly OK. VOOGD-PHILLIPS' APPRAISAL TEXT:. Little Painted and Carved Wood Figure of Guanyin.Chinese, potentially Early Ming Dynasty (16th Century). The full figure seated lalatisana on a boldly carved rookery base, using a long thin skirt and with a long scarf curtained over the shoulders, with small fashion jewelry on the chest and the big confront with a crown centered by a figure of Buddha; with white and back red pigments now extensively flaked; with sale papers offering an earlier date of manufacturing. Condition: Very worn, one hand missing out on, breaking.Fair Market Value: $750.00.
