34 - A wood-encased stone seated figure of Guanyin A seated figure of the bodhisattva Guanyin (Avalokiteśvara), fashioned from mubaoshi — a natural formation in which wood has grown to envelop a stone. The sculptor has worked with, rather than against, this organic encasement, allowing the interplay of wood and stone to shape the figure's contemplative form. H: 16cm Wooden box China, Qing Dynasty
