A Green Tara 24K Gold Plated Statue: Embodiment of Swift Compassion and Divine Grace
This magnificent Green Tara statue measures 15.94 inches (40.5 cm) in height, rests upon a 12.2-inch (31 cm) base, and weighs 6.6 kg. Skilled Nepali artisans have traditionally crafted the sculpture from a durable copper body, creating a strong foundation for its graceful form and finely carved details. The surface is richly coated with 24K gold gilding, giving the statue a radiant finish that beautifully highlights Tara’s figure, garments, ornaments, and lotus pedestal. Delicate acrylic painting enhances the facial features and other intricate elements, while carefully placed gemstones add colour and brilliance to the crown and ornaments. With its refined Himalayan craftsmanship and elegant appearance, this Green Tara statue is suitable for Buddhist altars, meditation spaces, shrine rooms, and spiritual art collections.
Green Tara is depicted seated gracefully upon a lotus pedestal in a relaxed posture, with one leg folded and the other extended forward. Her right hand rests near her knee in the varada mudra, the gesture of generosity and the granting of blessings, while her left hand is raised near her heart in a graceful teaching gesture. Lotus stems rise alongside her body and blossom near her shoulders, framing her figure symmetrically. She is adorned with an ornate crown, necklaces, armlets, bracelets, earrings, and delicately carved garments enhanced with gemstone details. Her gently lowered eyes, softly defined lips, and composed expression convey serenity and attentiveness. The carefully layered lotus petals beneath her provide a balanced and decorative foundation for the complete sculpture.
