A beautiful antique hand carved, hand painted Quan Yin standing with hands clasped in prayer. She is painted white, with black hair, red lips, and gold/champagne and red robes. The carving stands approximately 16" tall and shows her age with flaked paint and what may be an old repair to the right bun of her hair. She is structurally very sound. She is beautiful and has the peaceful presence of a compassionate and merciful goddess who has heard countless prayers across many generations. Guanyin (觀音), Guanshiyin (觀世音), Quan Yin, Kwan Yin
