Avalokiteshvara (Chenrezig) Statues

Explore our collection of authentic handmade Avalokiteshvara (Chenrezig) statues from Nepal, created by skilled Himalayan artisans using traditional lost wax casting methods. Avalokiteshvara, known in Tibetan Buddhism as Chenrezig, is the Bodhisattva of Infinite Compassion and one of the most revered enlightened figures in Mahayana and Vajrayana Buddhism.

Chenrezig embodies unconditional compassion for all sentient beings and is closely associated with the famous mantra Om Mani Padme Hum. In Tibetan Buddhist iconography, Avalokiteshvara appears in several sacred forms including the peaceful four-armed Chenrezig and the powerful thousand-armed Avalokiteshvara, whose many hands symbolize limitless compassionate activity. For feminine expressions of compassionate enlightened activity, explore our Green Tara statues.

Many of our Avalokiteshvara statues are handcrafted in copper, carefully detailed by hand, and traditionally finished using genuine 24K gold fire gilding. These sacred works reflect the master craftsmanship of Patan and the Kathmandu Valley, where Nepali artisans have supplied Buddhist monasteries, temples, Dharma centers, practitioners, and collectors for generations.

Choose a handmade Avalokiteshvara or Chenrezig statue for a meditation altar, shrine room, compassion practice, Dharma center, temple, or fine Himalayan Buddhist art collection.
