From a recent trip to a local estate, for your consideration, comes this magnificent China export porcelain hand-painted and decorated buddha. From a collection of Buddhas I have sold. Please take a look at the other Buddha in auction on ebay right now. Ca. 1900, no later than the begining of WWI. As found original and untouched. Enlightening to the eyes.

Rosy red cheeks, lips and florals along with baby blues sunshine yellows and dancing pinks over glazed just off-white porcelain. Very attractive. Measures a nice 8' tall by 6.5" wide by just over 3" deep. Stamped on the bottom, China.
