Product description
Estimated value: €1,800 – €2,200. This large Burmese Buddha statue is crafted from a single block of wood and richly gilded with gold leaf. The statue dates from the Mandalay period (c. 1850–1900) and displays all the characteristic features of classic 19th-century Burmese temple and altar statues. The Buddha is depicted seated in bhumisparsha mudra, the earth-touching gesture, symbolizing enlightenment and spiritual victory. The gilding shows natural wear with visible traces of red lacquer and paint, typical of prolonged religious use. The finely carved robe is richly decorated with engraved patterns and green inlay, while the inlaid eyes give the statue a lively and devotional appearance — a strong stylistic feature of Mandalay workshops. The open underside with deep hollowing and visible chisel marks confirms traditional manual construction and rules out modern manufacturing. An authentic and impressive wooden Buddha statue from Burma, intended for serious collectors of Southeast Asian Buddhist art.
