The rose quartz sculpture depicts the form of Kwan Yin sitting with a curved object in hand, a scepter, a symbol of power and good fortune. Kwan Yin, commonly known as the Goddess of Mercy, is also revered by Chinese Taoists as an Immortal and the Bodhisattva of compassion. Due to her association with compassion, in East Asia, Kwan Yin is often linked with vegetarianism and a deep compassion for all living things. Natural Rose Quartz is one of the rarer colored types of crystalline quartz. Rose quartz is commonly characterized by its light tones, so gems with medium tones and larger gem sizes are highly prized. This Chinese statue is rare due to its material and the size of the sculpture itself. The sculpture comes from a private collection, has no scratches or structural issues, and is in perfect condition. This unique statue can add a distinctive artistic touch to your home's interior or exterior design. This artwork is exquisitely hand carved in rose quartz.
