Subject:Seeking statuette of Mount Qingyuan Laozi
Posted By: Cten Tue, Mar 16, 2021 IP: 138.199.52.72

People here have been so helpful before; trying my luck again.

Laozi is a central figure in my meditation practice. I am fascinated by the native-rock statue in the image below, and have long wanted to find a nice wood or stone statuette. Years of searching the usual markets and forums (limited by my ignorance of the Chinese language) have been fruitless. Can anyone point me to some site, store or other vendor that might have or be able to get such a thing? Failing that, a nice image would still be helpful.

Dealers welcome, though my pockets are not very deep!

Thanks as always.

Wang Fu Jing, Beijing. 王府井

It has a nice Chinese art and souvenir store right beside bookstore and McDonald. That store is older than I can remember. It sure can get the exact Laozi art.

I found these mass productions from my shopping app. Not fine arts.

Thank you for these replies. Have other images/statuettes of Laozi; it's that specific design that I seek. I have searched for a souvenir shop near the Mt. Qingyuan, but even using Chrome with Google Translate hasn't helped.

Oh well; if it is meant to be, something will turn up!

Thanks again.
