Very Fine 17th–18th Century Heavy Tibetan Bodhisattva. This exceptionally fine 17th–18th century Tibetan Bodhisattva is distinguished by its remarkable weight, density, and the soft, luminous glow of its surface—traits that strongly suggest a high gold content within the alloy. The sculpture’s presence is immediately compelling, radiating both spiritual warmth and technical mastery.
The detailing is exquisite throughout: every contour, facial feature, and ornamental element has been rendered with exceptional precision. The overall quality of the sculpting far surpasses that of most Tibetan bronzes from the period, marking this as a work from a highly skilled atelier and justifying its elevated valuation. Despite its relatively intimate scale, the figure has a commanding presence, measuring 6.25 inches tall (6.25 x 5.3 x 3.1 inches). Its refined casting, rich alloy, and superb craftsmanship make it a truly special example—far superior to the majority of comparable Tibetan pieces encountered on the market.
