Khmer Avalokiteshvara Travel Image – Bodhisattva for the Journey (lot 147)

Estimated value: €400

This small Khmer Lokeshvara travel statue was made to be carried with you and kept close. The statue represents protection, compassion, and inner strength and was intended as a personal companion during travels and uncertain moments.

The compact form and sturdy weight make it clear that this was not a decorative statue, but a functional object. The surface has been softened by prolonged holding and carrying. The dark, natural patina has developed through time and touch and confirms that the statue has been used intensively.

This type of travel statue was chosen for its proximity. Small enough to always have with you, yet with a strong presence. Age and use give the statue a palpable tranquility and make it a personal anchor.

Dimensions: H 9.7 × W 4.2 cm
