{"product_id":"gilded-bronze-crowned-bodhisattva","title":"Antique gilded bronze seated bodhisattva with lotus blossom","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis Antique Seated Bodhisattva Gilded Bronze Sculpture with Lotus Blossom is an exquisitely rendered and tranquil piece of Devotional Art that depicts the Bodhisattva as a richly clothed and adorned figure who has chosen to postpone his\/her Enlightenment in order to assist others. The figure most likely represents the White Tara or another Compassion Deity known for her commitment to Purity and Spiritual Power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe seated deity appears to be resting in an effortless, relaxed pose commonly referred to as the Royal Ease or a relaxed meditative Dhyanasana. The base of the sculpture provides an understated foundation upon which the deity appears to rest giving a sense of stability and serenity. The tall, slender torso of the figure conveys a sense of Divine Grace and Femininity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis sculpture has been created using masterful craftsmanship in the Rendering of both Dual-tone Finishes and Gilding:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Gilding: A rich, high-carat yellow gold finish is applied to the face, shoulders, torso, legs and decorative jewellery of the deity. This decorative gold finish is the embodiment of the deity's Enlightenment, Purity, and Spiritual Abundance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDark Patina: All other surfaces of the sculpture except for the body have a dark patina that has developed over time due todressed leg being dressed in dark patina. The contrast of the dark patina to the deity's gold-plated body enhances the visual impact of the sculpture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe deity is elaborately decorated with intricate and carefully crafted Gold Jewelry; some of which is a portion of the multi-tiered Gold Crown, which is indicative of a Bodhisattva and is adorned with various precious stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Casa Mandala ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46193352442031,"sku":"VSP-145","price":9400.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0716\/8851\/9855\/files\/13_Compressed_f55678f9-3252-48fd-aa32-cf66705990b9.jpg?v=1762252683","url":"https:\/\/www.thecasamandala.com\/products\/gilded-bronze-crowned-bodhisattva","provider":"Casa Mandala ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
