Product description
What a beautiful and powerful Buddha statue. This is Shakyamuni Buddha, sitting in the classic bhumisparsha-mudra, the moment he touches the earth and confirms his enlightenment. A posture that radiates peace, determination, and inner strength. The statue is crafted from heavy bronze and was originally richly fire-gilded. This is still clearly visible on the face, chest, and in the folds of the robe, where the gold has worn away over time in a beautiful, natural manner. It is precisely this that gives this statue its depth and authenticity. The decoration of the robe is refined and vibrant, with a rich pattern that beautifully contrasts with the smooth, serene skin of the Buddha. The lotus base is sturdy and harmonious in shape, which gives the statue a solid and tranquil appearance. This type of Shakyamuni was made in Nepal for home altars and personal devotion. Not mass-produced, but a statue meant for daily life. The interior confirms its age: no modern traces, but a time-worn, natural structure that only develops with age. An honest, powerful, and authentic Buddha statue with presence. Not ostentatious, but present. A piece that brings tranquility to a space and continues to resonate every day.
