Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

In Himalayan and Tibetan traditions, Garuda is a revered bird-like deity associated with protection, serving as a symbol of power over harmful forces and celestial energy.

Figures of this nature were predominantly created using the lost-wax casting technique, after which artisans applied hand-chiselled details, mercury gilding, and mineral pigments.

Authenticity is assessed by examining natural surface patination, wear on high points, the casting seam construction, residual core material within the base, and specific iconographic details.

Such sculptures function well as decorative focal points on a dark wood bookshelf, a mantelpiece, or an entryway console table paired with neutral textiles.

Dust the surface lightly with a dry, soft-bristled brush, avoiding water, chemical polishes, or abrasive cloths that could strip original gilded layers or painted details.
