Hollywood Blvd Cinema Memorabilia
Lot 1343:
Description
A striking piece of Orientalist decor, this statue depicts a seated Buddha-like figure in a unique, dynamic pose, balancing on one leg while holding a small vessel or offering bowl. The figure is dressed in a traditional high-collared tunic and appears to be cast from a heavy metal alloy with a weathered gold gilt or brass finish. The style leans towards early to mid-20th-century Chinoiserie, characterized by the ornate base and the accompanying dragon motif visible in the background. The item shows a heavy patina and significant dust accumulation, with some wear to the gilded surface and minor pitting consistent with age and long-term display. H 20″, W 10″, D 8″ Please use photos to judge condition and bid accordingly. Please note: Buyer is responsible for removal. From the Hollywood Blvd. Cinemas Collection.
