This exquisite 16th-century Burmese Buddha statue stands 87.5 cm tall and showcases the craftsmanship of the early Ava period. Notable for its traces of original 24 karat gilding, the statue exemplifies the rich artistic heritage of Burma (Myanmar), a country known for its deep-rooted Buddhist traditions and vibrant cultural history.

The statue, made of wood, features a serene expression that embodies the essence of meditation and enlightenment. The Bhumisparsha mudra is depicted, a gesture signifying the Buddha's call to the Earth to witness his enlightenment, marking a pivotal moment in Buddhist teachings. This gesture is often associated with themes of grounding and stability, resonating with the core values of Buddhism.

The intricate details of the statue, including the elaborate robe and ornamental features, reflect the stylistic influences of the Ava period, where artisans blended indigenous techniques with influences from neighboring regions. This artistic fusion contributed to the distinct identity of Burmese Buddhist art, making it a significant historical artifact.

Weighing 27.9 kg and measuring 46 cm in width and 33 cm in depth, this statue represents a vital piece of Myanmar's artistic tradition and serves as a poignant symbol of spiritual significance, inviting reflection and reverence in any setting.
