Description

seated in dhyanasana upon a lotus throne, his downcast glance set on the hands in dhyanamudra, his bare chest, arms and ankles bejeweled, his pendant ears with wheel-form earrings, a foliate crown atop the head, surrounding the two-tiered topknot, all adornments inlaid with a green hardstone, his long scarves weaving around the arms, the dhoti incised with floral borders

Condition

In good overall condition with one stone missing from the center of the foliate crown. It is well cast and the gilding remains strong.
