FINE! Japanese antique 1800s kannnon statue BIZEN ceramic doll Figurine of Buddhist statue 観音 Avalokiteśvara bizen keln H9.4in/24cm.
観音Avalokitesvara is a person in training to become a 如来Tathagata, transforming into various forms to save all kinds of people in the world. There are various theories, but it is said that she possesses both masculine and feminine qualities. Statues of Kannon are very popular in Japan and many have been made. But this one is enchanting because of the beauty of its face and details. The overall appearance is also wonderful. There is an aura of spaciousness and compassion. The neutral atmosphere is also very beautiful. This is not originally just a figurine, but was made as an incense cover with a hole drilled in the back to burn incense inside. The charm of this piece will be further enhanced if incense is wafted from the back. The artist's signature is also engraved on the back. It comes with an old wooden box as a set and makes a special gift.
This piece was baked in Bizen kiln whose root an be traced back to the 古墳Kofun period (3rd-7th century) in Japan. It is characterized by the ultimate simplicity of its pottery, which is not glazed or painted.The pottery is fired at a high temperature of 1,200 to 1,300 degrees Celsius, and patterns are created by the properties of the clay, the way the kiln is filled, changes in kiln temperature, and the ashes and charcoal used during firing. The handmade, deep flavor of the pottery is its charm, and the more you use it, the deeper the color becomes.
