Country Group: The Himalayas (Tibet, Nepal, Mongolia and Other)

Item id: 6967

Finely worked 18thc Tibetan Repousse Amateyus-Bodhisattva of long life. Much finer work that the vast majority of this type. Missing his bowl, bits of his side crown and side ribbons (which is common for this type), and some of his gilding as can be seen in the photos. Absolutely classic face and overall proportions. Sits a full 7 inches tall. Bottom is sealed with a beautiful consecration plate. From a well respected bay area collector forced to sell his collection for personal reasons.

-----------------------Special DIFFERENT METHOD OF SELLING----------
I am trying something new with this piece. Already many of my best customers have asked about buying it, and I know many more will want it, so I want to try something new-an experiment.


I will sell this to the highest offer I receive by next Sunday 4/4. I want to try this because I want to give everyone a fair chance. I am hoping that by doing my own “Auction” I can give everyone a chance to make a bid. If this process works I will be putting up even better Buddhas this way in the future.


So, please send me an email with your best offer(including shipping) for item 6967, by April 4th. If you are highest bidder you win! I have a hidden reserve, but it is far lower than I would normally sell such a finely worked piece of this size and quality
