Antique Cement Kwan Yin Garden Statue – 28" Goddess of Compassion Description: Bring a sense of serenity and spiritual grace to your space with this vintage carved cement statue of Kwan Yin—also known as Guanyin or Quan Yin—the revered Bodhisattva of Compassion and Mercy in East Asian Buddhism. Standing gracefully at 28 inches tall on a round 8-inch lotus base, this sculpture was hand-cast in the 1930s using traditional methods and has since developed a beautiful natural patina from years of coastal exposure in La Jolla, California. The statue features exquisite detailing in the robes and face, with Kwan Yin depicted holding a basket/ vessel of pure water and fish—symbolizing divine compassion, wisdom, and the nectar of life. With one hand raised in a peaceful mudra and the other gently holding the basket, Kwan Yin stands as a timeless symbol of serenity, healing, and enlightenment. This solid cement piece is weathered, some peeling paint, structurally sound, and suitable for indoor or outdoor use—perfect for Zen gardens, patios, altars, or meditation spaces. This is not a reproduction; it is a true antique piece that has been loved and aged beautifully over time. The soft wear and slight color variations only enhance its authenticity and charm.
