Cast Iron Jizo Statue

Small, yet fierce as a mother protecting her child, Jizo Bodhisattva--Ksitigarbha, or "Earth Womb"--aids all those in the six worlds of existence. Traditionally, Jizo Bodhisattva is said to protect women, children, travelers, and those faced with suffering and loss.

Cast iron with a rough-hewn verdigris finish.
