This listing is for the relatively large pottery statue representing Quanyin or Kwan Yin that you see in the photos. The pottery looks hard to me so I think that it is probably some kind of porcelain. I acquired it at an estate sale in Oregon where I was not told its history. I do not know when it was made. I think that it is probably old enough to be considered vintage or possibly older. I do not know if it is Chinese or Japanese. I am inclined to think that it is Chinese but I am not... at all sure that it is. The closeups show an impressed mark on the bottom that looks like Asian characters to me. I leave it to the buyer to decide when and where it was made. It measures close to 22 ½ inches tall. It weighs close to 10 pounds 1.2 ounces. As shown in the photos, the face is a kind of off-white color. The condition is much like you see it in the photos. It is generally in excellent condition with no cracks or chips. A close-up shows a tiny dark irregularity in the glaze from when it was made. The bottom looks lightly soiled. Otherwise, it is fine and as shown. My photos should give you a good idea of its condition and nature. I guarantee this statue to be as described and represented by the 14 photos after the general description. The photos are part of the description. Please look at all of them. Please know that the lighting in my photos is uneven and that there might be shadows or reflections. The colors on my monitor look close to but not exactly like the actual colors. Different monitors may show different colors. I often say that an item measures or weighs “close to” because in my opinion no measurements are exact. Those paying with Paypal must have a confirmed address registered with Paypal.
