15011. Nepalese Relief Panel with Semi Precious Stone Inlays

Ca. 19th century AD

Of rectangular form with filigree work surrounding the central figure of a bodhisattva.

This votive plaque would have been made for a modern domestic shrine. Breathtakingly lavish, it not only confers the enduring, multivalent mastery of Nepali craftsmanship in filigree, repoussé, stone-cutting, stone-polishing, and inlay.

Height 14 inches.

The density of precious stones in this composition speaks to the widespread practice of donating jewelry at sacred centers.
