Green Tara Copper Statue with 24K Gold Gilding | Embodiment of Swift Compassion
Remarkable in scale and refined in every detail, this Green Tara Copper Statue with 24K Gold Gilding measures 27.7”/70.5 cm in height, rests on an 18.5”/47 cm base, and weighs 19.01 kg. Handcrafted in Nepal by highly skilled Himalayan artisans, its substantial copper body is carefully shaped and covered with three layers of luminous 24K gold gilding, creating an exceptionally rich and radiant finish. Detailed acrylic painting introduces precise color, contrast, and definition throughout the composition, while deeply engraved patterns create a magnificent three-dimensional effect across the elaborate surface. Its considerable weight, balanced proportions, layered gilding, and extensive hand-finishing reflect the advanced metalworking expertise and many hours of dedicated craftsmanship required to complete a statue of this scale.
Green Tara, revered as the Mother of Liberation, embodies active compassion, swift protection, fearlessness, and enlightened wisdom. Her sacred form represents the immediate response of compassion and her readiness to guide beings beyond suffering, fear, and obstacles. She is depicted seated in the Lalitasana (royal ease posture) upon a lotus pedestal, with her right leg extended downward, symbolizing her willingness to rise and assist sentient beings. Her right hand rests in the Varada Mudra, the gesture of generosity and compassionate blessings, while her left hand holds the stem of an utpala lotus near her heart, representing purity, wisdom, and spiritual awakening. The blooming lotus beside her shoulder symbolizes the flourishing of enlightened qualities, while her serene expression, jeweled crown, and celestial ornaments reflect the radiant qualities of a Bodhisattva. This sacred representation inspires practitioners to cultivate compassion, courage, inner strength, and the wisdom to overcome fears and obstacles on the path toward liberation.
