These beautiful wooden Jizos and Kwan Yin are hand crafted by artisans in Bali. As such each statue is absolutely unique, and will be slightly different from the images below (especially in the wood grain and color). The purchase of one Jizo supports an artisan and their family for an entire year. Our supplies are limited. --view images of these Jizos being carved-- |

Our handmade Altar Jizos come in various styles, skin tones, and glaze colors. Each Jizo is a unique work of art - designed by Jan Chozen Bays Roshi and cast by her students at Great Vow Zen Monastery. After casting, several stages of hand finishing and glazing follow. Glaze colors and patterns have natural variations and will vary somewhat from the photos. Please specify which style (peeking, child, or infant), glaze (green, blue, or cream/red flames) and skin tone (white, tan, or ebony) when placing an order. If no preferences are specified on your order, we will pick out a nice one for you. Paypal has a space for comments or notes where this request can be made. Significance of robe colors:The Jizos with BLUE glaze represent the Jizo who safely carries those who have died across the River Sai. This is the river that divides the world of the living from the world of the dead. The Jizos with GREEN glaze is the Earthstore Bodhisattva, guardian of the great earth, everything that grows from the earth, and the treasure hidden within it. This also means that Jizo is the guardian of our precious Buddha Nature, which lies hidden in each person until it is cultivated through sincere practice. The Jizo whose robe has a trim of RED FLAMES (cream glaze) is the Jizo who descends into the hell realms to rescue those who are enduring deep suffering. Jizo moves fearlessly through the flames of hell to carry out his vow, even when fire burns the hem of his robe. |
