Product description
This monumental seated Buddha from Ladakh is an exceptionally heavy and powerful temple image, crafted from fire-gilded bronze with remnants of original gilding in deep areas and folds. The serene expression, broad shoulders, and massive lotus base give the image a strong spiritual presence typical of 18th-century Himalayan workshops. The sculpture was traditionally cast using the lost-wax technique and shows natural wear and old patina, consistent with prolonged ritual use. The combination of size, weight, and serene modeling makes this not a decorative object but a serious religious image, intended for a temple or monastic setting. Due to its impressive size of 87 cm height and approximately 41 kg, this piece belongs to the larger Ladakhi bronzes which rarely appear on the market. The subtle remnants of fire-gilding enhance the depth of the surface and give the image a warm, living appearance. Dimensions: H 87 cm x W approx. 55 cm Weight: approx. 41 kg Origin: Ladakh / Western Himalayas Period: 18th century Symbolism: The Abhaya Mudra This object is depicted with the Abhaya Mudra, the sacred gesture of reassurance and protection. The raised right hand with the palm facing outwards symbolizes the vanquishing of fear and the bestowing of spiritual peace.
