I have lived with this "Religeous Artifact" for my entire life. It was brought to America sometime prior to 1940, I imagine. Grandpa was the Vice President of Coca-Cola International Marketing for the East. He was stationed in Hong Kong, but traveled extensively, so I am not certain of origination. But, as far as I can decifer, this is a Qwan, or Guan Yin Sculture, and of the Finest detail that I have seen over a year of reseaching. And, it is of a Very Hard Stone, most others are Sandstone, and the wear is very prominent on those. This is the only one I have seen that is in such detail, and with this Hair style. I am interested in selling it if the price is right.
