Taoist / Buddhist Chinese Statues & a Chest

Postby Methods on Mon Sep 07, 2009 2:10 pm

I thought I would give this place a go before off to ebay.
My statues are for sale. These are the best I have ever seen - literally.
$1000 for all of them.

Here are some brief descriptions of them to better understand their uses - or use them as decoration - either or its a win win situation due to I payed almost a grand a(after shipping) just for Xuan Wu,
Hsuan Tien Shang ti (Xuan Wu)- True god of martiality, reincarnate of Jade Emperor, Lord of the North, Savior of the World and the great bearer of the seven star sword demon slayer - phew....

Chui Tien Hsuan Nu (Xuan Nu) - Only disciple of the great Mother Hsi Wang mu and the great teacher to the one and only Yellow Emperor. She is the true god of the ninth Heaven being granted that title after helping create the world that we know. Known to be a great meditation teacher and Taoist swordsmen worship her for her great sword skills hoping for them to be passed on. o.k. - man one more.
Image
Tai-i Tien tsun (Taiyi) The great helper of Immortality and the great god of compassion. Super awesome god that will help when pray and meditate to. There is only one god higher and that is the Jade Emperor himself, but instead of being lofty, Taiyi chooses to stay in the lower heavens to help people.

This is an old antique chest - used it as a T stand for years, its in super good shape and has kick ass carvings on the bottom. Its a real antique guys, that has been restored into a honey color, sucks but it has got to go. Paid 600 for it but Im asking $300 and I can take it down to SD if need be.

Can't afford the statues, but I really like that tea kettle in the background. How much? ;D Those are some kick ass looking statues, though! I'm sure you'll find the right buyer.
