This exquisite antique Burmese marble Buddha statue, originating from Burma (Myanmar), dates back to the 17th century and stands at an impressive height of 73 cm. Crafted from high-quality marble, it showcases traces of its original lacquer and 24-karat gilding, enhancing its aesthetic appeal. The statue measures 43 cm in width and 24.5 cm in depth, weighing 36.65 kg, signifying its robust craftsmanship.

The artistic style of this statue is reflective of the Ava period, known for its uniqueness and grace in Buddhist art. The Ava period, spanning from the 14th to the 18th centuries, was a significant era in Myanmar's history, marked by the flourishing of cultural and artistic expression. This era produced numerous remarkable sculptures that often displayed intricate details and a deep spirituality.

In this statue, the Buddha is depicted in the Bhumisparsha mudra, a gesture symbolizing the moment of enlightenment. In this stance, the Buddha touches the earth with one hand, representing the call of the earth to witness his enlightenment, embodying themes of grounding and realization.

Overall, this beautiful piece not only serves as a decorative artifact but also as a historical reminder of Burma’s rich cultural heritage and its deep-rooted Buddhist traditions. Each element of the statue conveys a profound message, inviting reflection and serenity into any space.
