Product description
Estimated value: €550 – €850 This antique Mahayana travel image with kalasha is meant for intimacy. Its compact size and substantial weight suggest a personal devotional object that was carried, held, and used, not a decorative statue for a fixed display. The figure holds a kalasha, the ritual vessel that symbolizes life energy, purity, and spiritual abundance, a motif originating in India and notably adopted within the Mahayana tradition in Southeast Asia. The surface shows remnants of old gilding and a natural, deep patina consistent with prolonged use. The underside is closed, which distinguishes this image from classical Thai traditions and aligns it more closely with Mahayana-inspired workshops in the Khmer or Javanese spheres. These are images not made to impress, but to accompany. For the owner, this is an image that brings peace and focus. It feels like an old utilitarian object with a clear presence: small, yet concentrated. The combination of age, iconography, and tangible signs of use makes this a reliable and compelling travel image of lasting value. Dimensions: H 6.5 × W 3 cm Weight: 140 grams Additional details: - Brand: 1stbuddha - Style: Mahayana - Style: Khmer - Style: Java - Material: verguld - Colour: Goud - availability: in_stock - product_type: Beeld / sculptuur
