Product description
This Nepalese statue depicts a seated Buddha in the Abhaya Mudra, a sacred gesture symbolising protection, reassurance, and freedom from fear. The figure is classically modelled with a serene expression, while the robe is richly decorated with finely repeated motifs, giving the piece a calm yet commanding presence. Hollow-cast from a silver-coloured copper alloy, commonly known as white metal, the statue features a modelled lotus pedestal base. It measures 28 centimetres in height and 16 centimetres in width. The surface exhibits natural oxidation and remnants of the original gilding in recessed areas, a characteristic finish of Nepalese production from the late nineteenth to early twentieth century. The statue remains in good condition, showing natural surface wear consistent with its age and historical use as a devotional object. No modern coatings or restorations are present, preserving the integrity of its naturally aged finish. Originally intended for private worship, this impressive collector's piece offers both spiritual significance and decorative appeal. It serves as a striking focal point in a curated interior, complementing both traditional and eclectic spaces.
