Product description
Antique Thai Rattanakosin Buddha Statue This heavy bronze Buddha statue depicts the Buddha seated in Vajrasana on an intricately sculpted double lotus base. The right hand touches the earth in the Bhumisparsha mudra, one of the most powerful gestures within the Buddhist sculptural tradition. This earth-touching posture refers to the moment of enlightenment, in which the Buddha remains steadfast and calls upon the earth as a witness. The meaning of this statue lies in grounding, protection, inner strength, spiritual clarity, and overcoming doubt. The statue features the elegant, slender proportions characteristic of the Thai Rattanakosin style, with long fingers, a refined physique, and a high flame-shaped ushnisha. The old gilding, red underlayer, dark bronze color, and natural wear give the object a profound, ritualistic appearance. The open underside reveals old core remnants of clay and sand, consistent with traditional bronze casting techniques. Together with its heavy weight, thick casting wall, and aged surface, this supports a dating to the 19th or early 20th century.
