TIBET, 13TH-14TH CENTURY

The condition of lots can vary widely and the nature of the lots sold means that they are unlikely to be in a perfect condition. Lots are sold in the condition they are in at the time of sale.

Small pinhole loss to the top of the lotus base beneath the ankles and three additional small losses on the sides of the lotus base. Two repaired losses on the left side of the lotus base, likely contemporaneous to manufacture. Additional repair in the figure’s lap, also likely contemporaneous to manufacture. Losses include the middle finger of the proper left upper hand and the proper left flared tie of the crown. Polished loss to the lower edge of the lotus base at proper right front. Repaired break to the central petal of the crown. Expected nicks, scratches, and pitting to the surface of the bronze. Blackish accretion in the recessed areas.
