About the Item

A rare and exquisite bronze figure of Buddha Avalokitesvara from the Karkota period of Kashmir, circa 800 AD. This finely cast sculpture depicts the bodhisattva crowned and bejeweled, wearing a distinctive three-leaf triangular crown, a hallmark of early Kashmiri craftsmanship. The delicate modeling and refined proportions reflect the high level of artistry characteristic of the Karkota dynasty, which was known for producing sophisticated Buddhist bronzes blending spiritual symbolism with technical mastery. The figure rests on a wood plinth and measures 4.5 inches high by 2 inches wide and 1.5 inches deep, weighing 265 grams. Its exceptional preservation, combined with its early date and rarity, makes it a highly significant example of early Indian Buddhist art. A museum-quality piece, it represents both historical importance and spiritual elegance.
