Description

This exquisite 18th-century Tibetan Buddha statue stands at 57.7 cm tall and showcases the intricate technique of hammered copper, or copper repoussé, beautifully enhanced with fire gilding in 24 karat gold. Originating from Tibet, a region renowned for its rich Buddhist heritage, this piece reflects the artistic and spiritual practices that have flourished in the region for centuries.

The statue is highlighted by the Bhumisparsha mudra, a gesture signifying the moment of the Buddha's enlightenment, as he calls the earth to witness his awakening. This mudra embodies strength, stability, and the profound connection of the Buddha to the earth and all living beings.

Weighing 4.15 kg and measuring 36 cm in width and 24.5 cm in depth, this statue is not only a stunning representation of Buddhist art but also serves as a historical artifact. Its provenance links it to an esteemed English private collection, hinting at its journey through time and geography.

Buddhist art from Tibet often symbolizes peace, enlightenment, and compassion, making this statue a meaningful addition to any collection. The meticulous craftsmanship and historical significance of this piece make it a treasured artifact that resonates with spiritual depth and cultural heritage.
