Wonderful 19/20th Century Old Antique Tibetan Buddhism Painted Clay Tsa Tsa Buddha Statue "Big wheel Vajrapani" 6.4"

Vajrapani is a Bodhisattva who represents the energy of the enlightened mind .On the popular level , Vajrapani,(the Holder of the Thunderbolt Scepter), symbolizes the power of compassion . He is widely depicted in Buddhist iconography as one of the three protective deities wildly in the engulfing flames of transformation. His footage is the sun-disk and his adornments are various nagas (serpents). Holding a vajra (Tibetan:  dorje: the thunderbolt    sy mbolizing the power to cut through the darkness of delusion) in his right hand , and a demon noose in his left , Vajrapani looks wrathful , but as a representation of the enlightened mind , he`s completely free from hatred.

This is a nice rare antique tsa tsa for "Big wheel Vajrapani". The tsa tsa was color painted.  The condition is good.

Nice collection for antique Tsa Tsa.
