The well-modelled female Bodhisattva seated on an elephant recumbent on a flat rockwork base, her left arm cradling a ruyi sceptre, dressed in loosely-draped robes falling open at the chest to reveal a jewelled necklace, her face modelled with serene expression and downcast eyes framed by hair drawn back and knotted in double tresses falling over her shoulders, the back with impressed Zhang Shanshou mark within a double gourd--5 1/2in.
