This must be one of the prettiest states of Guan Yin I have seen :)

Forgive my ignorance, but is Guan Yin part of the Buddhist tradition or another practice?

Dear Zeus, oh dear, I guess She is part Buddhism, part folklore. She is a bit like Virgin Mary.

Dear San, you are right. She looked a bit cheeky, not lembek (?) like the ways she is normally portrayed.
