Extremely rare copper statue of Kannon Bosatsu (Avalokiteśvara). Due to being made of copper, there is some green rust. There is some deterioration due to long-term storage in a warehouse. Please also check the images. This is a valuable example of how the Buddhist statue styles of the early and flourishing Tang Dynasty in China were received and absorbed in Japan. This copper Seikan'non Bosatsu statue (Buddhist statue, good luck ornament, fortune ornament, business prosperity ornament) is a standing figure. As a standing statue of the gentle-faced Seikan'non, who protects you, Kannon holds a wish-fulfilling jewel (nyoi hoju) in her right hand and a treasure vase (houbyou), which brings treasures, in her left hand. It is said that simply gazing at Kannon's face filled with compassion every day brings merit. As a belief from ancient China, this is a god of business prosperity with power. It is said to have a wide range of benefits, such as prosperity of descendants, improvement of fortune, removal of suffering, recovery from illness, bestowal of wisdom and talent, fulfillment of wishes, warding off evil, good luck, ancestor worship, and rebirth in paradise.
