Antique Tibetan / Himalayan Gilt Bronze White Tara Figure

Consecrated Sealed Base Buddhist Shrine Statue

A finely cast antique Tibetan or Himalayan gilt bronze Buddhist figure, believed to depict White Tara or a related Vajrayana bodhisattva deity, seated in meditation upon a lotus-form base.

This elegant devotional figure displays strong Himalayan Buddhist styling, with an elaborate crown, serene facial expression, flowing side ornaments and finely modelled decorative detail throughout. The surface has developed a rich golden patina with natural age-related wear and areas of verdigris.

Particularly notable is the sealed copper base, suggesting the figure may have been ritually prepared or consecrated for shrine or devotional use in the traditional Tibetan Buddhist manner.

Adlington’s Emporium Note: A beautifully atmospheric piece with strong collector and decorative appeal, suited to Asian art collections, devotional interiors, wabi-sabi styling and curated cabinet displays.
