Description

This special antique bronze Shan Buddha statue, originating from Burma (Myanmar), stands impressively at 43.4 cm in height and weighs 11.55 kg. Dated to the 17th to 18th century, it represents the artistry and devotion characteristic of Shan (Tai Yai) cultural heritage. The intricate craftsmanship embodies the spiritual significance of the time, with its style reflecting a fusion of Burmese and Thai influences.

The Bhumisparsha mudra, depicted by the gesture of touching the earth, signifies the moment of enlightenment when the Buddha called the earth to witness his attainment of truth. This mudra is a powerful symbol of grounding and stability, portraying the Buddha's determination to attain enlightenment against all odds.

Burma, known for its rich Buddhist traditions, has a long history of bronze casting, which flourished from the early centuries. The Shan people, known for their ethereal artistry, contributed to the creation of splendid religious artifacts that resonate with spiritual depth and cultural pride.

In excellent condition, this large-sized statue not only serves as a stunning decorative piece but also offers a glimpse into the profound spiritual heritage of the region, inviting contemplation and reverence for its historical and cultural significance.
