Gold-plated copper statue of the Green Tara in antique style

This gold-plated copper statue in antique style depicts Green Tara, one of the best-known and most revered female Bodhisattvas in Tibetan Buddhism. The figure is handcrafted in Nepal and has an antique-style patina that emphasizes its traditional, authentic effect.

The Green Tara is depicted in a lively seated posture, with one leg slightly forward - a sign of her immediate readiness to act.

• The right hand shows the gesture of giving and protection (Varada mudra).

• The left hand is raised in the teaching and protective gesture (Vitarka mudra) and is accompanied by a lotus motif , symbolizing purity and spiritual awakening.

The finely crafted crown, the flowing folds of the robe and the ornamental details bear witness to classical Nepalese metalwork; the gilding is deliberately irregular and lends the statue depth and character.

The Green Tara embodies active compassion, protection from fears and obstacles as well as quick help. She is regarded as a liberator from the eight great fears (including fear, illness and doubt) and stands for courage, trust and healing energy. In practice, she is invoked to overcome obstacles quickly and to strengthen compassionate action in everyday life.
