Country Group: The Himalayas (Tibet, Nepal, Mongolia and Other)
Superb mirror pair of 17thC Nepalese solid cast mercury gilded Bodhisattvas. Look to have been part of a larger altar group. In excellent condition- perfect, with the exception of one of the prongs on the base being bent so that one has some standing issues. It could be bent out, or they would look fabulous with bases. I’ve had them as is and they’ve been fine. Quite heavy, and a very good size at 9.5 inches tall. Out of a large well known estate. Extremely uncommon, very high quality pair. I’ve never seen another pair like them.
