    I am not even sure what this is made of nor which goddess it is, but she sure is a beauty! Any help would be appreciated. She's solid and quite heavy.

      I thought it the Bodhissatva Maitreya with an elaborate 'chignon' or ushnisha.

      thank you vetraio50. i'm familiar w/ Maitreya, but i will have to look up 'chignon' and 'ushnisha'. hope it isn't something i can catch!
