50 to 75 year old Sino-Tibetan Solid-Cast Bronze Yellow Jambhala (Dzambhala),. A finely detailed, solid-cast miniature bronze figure of Yellow Jambhala, the Buddhist deity of wealth and abundance. Seated in lalitasana (royal ease) atop a richly sculpted, tiered lotus and scrolling cloud pedestal, the deity holds a citron fruit (bijapuraka) in his right hand and cradles the traditional jewel-spitting mongoose (nakula) under his left arm, while his right foot rests upon a conch shell. He is adorned with flowing celestial scarves, beaded jewelry, and an elaborate tiered foliate crown with a flame finial. Cast in dense bronze with a warm antique patina and subtle traces of gilt highlights in the recesses, the figure retains crisp detailing across the drapery, facial features, and pedestal. The underside is sealed with a flush copper-alloy base plate. An ideal size for a personal shrine or travel altar. Dimensions: 2.5" H × 2.25" W × 1.75" D (6.4 × 5.7 × 4.4 cm) | Weight: 255 g
