[QUOTE="Taylerlee, post: 10342283, member: 79635"]Google Lens tells me this carving is in soapstone and it is Guanyin, Goddess of Mercy and possibly from the Qing Dynasty (19th century). Is this figure really 19th century? it has one or two chips and the way in which the base is chiseled seems quite crude. However I know nothing about this subject other than this figure has been in my loft for many year since the passing of my grand parents. It weighs 4 kg and stands 13 inches high.
