Description:
|
Sitting on a lotus base, his both hands holding ritual implements, a pair of big fortune ears, a garland belt around his pot belly, with a jeweled necklace, tiered conical shaped headrest. Surrounded by two money voles, very rare, usually only one vole. The seller said this figure is from 17th century, and she bought it from her home town, Indonesia (not India). However, I am not sure if this one is up to 17th century and more like to be close to 18th century. |
