Lovely Chinese Liao style bronze Buddha. Probably early 20th century- hard to date. May have had losses painted over in the past. Well cast and finished- a beautifully decorative piece. Quite large and substantial at 14.5" tall (figure only) and 16.5" on its attached base. Graceful lines- the centerpoint of any room. The original Liao versions were typically 4 to 6 inches tall and solid cast. Only later emulations would ever be this large. This is the only one I've seen of this type.
