This is a rare gold plated wooden statue of a bodhisattva sitting in the Korean Dynasty. The bodhisattva wears a gorgeous crown, which is decorated with flame patterns on both sides. It seems that there is a pair of phoenix wings on the front, and there should be an important ornament (lost) above it to mark his identity. The Bodhisattva has a high bun, hair locks hanging down from the shoulders, a square face, and a serene and solemn manner. The dress is simple, natural and smooth. Tie the seal with both hands and sit on the platform with all skills.
