Wonderful 18/19thC Nepal /Tibet Buddhist Tantric Protectctive Deity in Sexual Unity with his consort (also known as Yabyum). Base is resealed. Retains some of its original blue and red polychrome. The male has 10 arms, each with its attribute (the female has 2 arms, each with an attribute). Wonderful fierce expressions. The base is separately cast, and has 2 figures which the deities stand upon. The bronze sits upon a wooden stand. Wonderful and authentic! Came from a respected traditional old brick and mortar auction house estate sale. This is quite heavy for it's size. It is close to 7 inches tall by 5.5 inches wide not including the wooden base.
