This is nepalese antique large brooch  from the  Newari people of Kathmandu, Nepal. It is of a Seated Buddha Figure, with hands in Mudras.  It is believed by the Buddhist shamans that Garuda's blessings will fulfill the needs and wishes of the Wearer, will purify with positive forces, provide good luck and to help dissolve negative energies that may be stopping them from realizing their dreams and wishes in life.The Buddhas are made of Coral, surrounded by Turquoise Glass stones.The five-pointed crown is indicative that this Buddha represents the five Buddhas (Akshobhya, Virochana, Ratnasambhava, Amitabha and Amoghasiddhi) in Mahayana tradition

 

The 5 Dhyani Buddhas, represent the 5 wisdoms realized in mediation: the wisdom of the Great Mirror, the wisdom of the Essential Equality, Distinguishing Wisdom, the wisdom of Selfless Activity , and the Transcendental wisdom of the Dharma Realm.

 

THis measures a whopping 2 1/2" tall and is completely hand wrought. . This is something you see in museums and is for high end collectors. A true show piece that will bring many compliments. 

 

IF you are a dealer and want to make people come to your booth then this is it. 

If you are a connoisseur of art deco jewelry then this is the piece that is the ULTIMATE. Very few pieces of semi precious stones are missing if any and it has wonderful patina.
