Subject:Bronze Tara statue
Posted By: Garth Wed, Jun 11, 2014 IP: 86.46.115.122

I have what I believe is a Green TaRa statue of Temple-size. Several auction house specialist have looked at images of the piece and comments range from 19thC Sino-Tibetan to 20thC Nepalese. I am hoping someone(s) here can shed some more light.

The piece seems to be single-piece cast bronze (clay-wax-clay method?) and is almost 3 feet tall. It was bought in Ireland and I only have history back to ~1950/60 and 2 previous Irish owners.

Any help appreciated
