Description

This antique wooden Burmese Buddha statue, crafted in the 19th century, stands at an impressive 87.5 cm tall. Originating from Burma (Myanmar), this exquisite piece embodies the artistic traditions prevalent during the Mandalay period, known for its intricate designs and refined craftsmanship. The statue is adorned with a gilding of 24 karat gold, which not only enhances its visual appeal but also signifies the reverence associated with Buddhist iconography.

The Buddha’s serene expression and inlaid eyes reflect a sense of tranquility and enlightenment, core values in Buddhist teachings. Each element, from the flowing robe to the carefully styled hair, showcases the attention to detail that characterizes Burmese artistry. The dimensions of 40 cm in width and 20 cm in depth, combined with the substantial weight of 6.5 kg, underscore the statue's solid construction and durability.

Burmese art has evolved significantly over centuries, influenced by various cultural exchanges, yet it has retained its unique identity. This statue serves as a testament to the rich spiritual heritage of Myanmar, encapsulating the essence of Buddhist philosophy in its graceful form. It is not merely a decorative object, but a piece that invites reflection and appreciation of the deep-rooted history and beliefs surrounding Buddhism in the region.
