The composition is a double triangle: the three-footed throne itself is a horizontal triangle as it recedes backward in space, and the Buddha and the throne form a vertical triangle.

The creation of renowned French-American multimedia artist and sculptor Pascal Giacomini, Giaco Guitars™ sculptures are uniquely playable works of art highly prized for both their musical and artistic merits. Technically, they are hybrid oil-can, solid body electric guitars.
This stand-out piece, “Fendi, the King of Jazz,” incorporates one of Giacomini’s original guitar sculptures into a larger work of 3-dimensional art that combines elements of musical instruments and vintage industrial components to pay homage to both jazz and rock ‘n’ roll.
The central component of the piece is a Giaco Guitar sculpture—the OK Guitar (07/100). Its upright guitar neck symbolizes Fender’s iconic guitars, with additional guitar bodies and musical motifs radiating upward from the base. Elements, including records, speakers and other instrument components, are integrated into a cohesive whole, creating a dynamic, layered effect.
Standing on a black circular metal base, the sculpture rises from a coiled metal spring, adding a sense of tension and rhythm to the piece. The mixed-media assemblage celebrates both the history of Fender guitars and the timeless influence of jazz music, embodying energy, movement and musical legacy.

Testimonial:
“Neck feels great. Great playability. Great sound. The Guitar gives you confidence to experiment. As you get past your comfortable licks and chords, you start playing things you’ve never played before. The guitar invites you to experiment and search for ideas. Guitars that enlighten your play. It’s genius that you don’t need a stand.”

Guandi, the God of War and Justice and Protector of China and its citizens was a Chinese model of loyalty, virtue and morality and was depicted in Temples and home shrines throughout China. This antique figurine was probably part of a larger carving. He wears military maille, black gloves with a carved taotie which is a warning against gluttony and is covered in gold as a sign of power. The open back confirms it was consecrated by a Taoist priest. Mounted on a frosted acrylic stand.
The 5-lobed crown of this rare Nanhai Guanyin contains the 5 Dhyani Tantric Buddhas of Wisdom. Carvings like this that were consecrated for placement on home altars were often covered in gilt as both a display of personal devotion and the wealth of the donor.
