This is a carved Opalite Kwan Yin! Opalite is a man-made material. For more info, see below the measurements. Opalite is one of my most requested materials - absolutely gorgeous! The stone itself has a unique coloring! The colors shift and change as you turn the piece in your hands. It is semi-transparent, and shades present include orange, blue, purple, and gold. Opalite almost seems to glow from within - very cool! Nice simple, clean details. It does stand upright on its own. It leans slightly to the right.
There may be a few tiny organic spots here and there from bubbles/inclusions that were close to the surface as the stone was carved and polished. Check out how it works with subtle energies below!
It weighs about 1.7oz and measures approx. 2 1/16" inches tall X 1 1/8" inches wide at the widest point. Code3232
