You will find here a Green Tara statue, 15 cm tall. In Tibetan Buddhism, Green Tara is the female bodhisattva of swift help, the removal of obstacles and protection. Her posture is distinctive: one foot rests halfway off the throne, ready to step down when someone turns to her for aid.
Green Tara's message and posture
By tradition, Green Tara does not sit in deep meditative repose, but remains ready to act. The lowered foot and softly opened hand symbolise welcome and the will to help. Your statue carries this posture in its finely shaped details. The flower she holds is often a blue lotus, a symbol of purity.
Craft and material
The statue is cast from polyresin, a blend of resin powder and lime powder. Polyresin allows precise rendering of fine details – facial features, the folds of robes, ornamentation. The base white surface may take on slightly different shades between production runs, in keeping with the nature of hand casting.
Size and placement in your home
The 15 cm height offers an elegant size for a desk or shelf. We recommend it for a meditation corner, a study windowsill, or a quiet hallway niche. In natural light, the details come into their own.
Care
Dust the surface with a soft cloth, and avoid damp cleaning or detergents. Polyresin is sensitive to prolonged humidity, so please avoid bathrooms or garden terraces. In a moderate indoor setting, it preserves its shape and colour over many years.
For whom we recommend the statue
We recommend it to you if you follow a Buddhist practice, or if you wish to give a thoughtful gift to a loved one in a difficult period or at a turning point in life. Green Tara is a symbol of accompaniment and reassuring presence, whose message quietly weaves itself into everyday life.
