Description

This special antique wooden Burmese Buddha statue is a remarkable representation of Buddhist art, crafted from wood and gilded with 24 karat gold. Standing at 58.8 cm in height, with a width of 40.2 cm and a depth of 23.9 cm, it weighs 9.6 kg and is in very good condition, reflecting its esteemed craftsmanship. Originating from Burma (now Myanmar), this piece dates back to the 16th century, a period known for its flourishing artistic expressions within Buddhist culture.

The statue depicts the Bhumisparsha mudra, a gesture symbolizing the moment of enlightenment, where Buddha calls the Earth to witness his victory over temptation. This mudra conveys themes of stability and grounding, emphasizing the moral virtues associated with the attainment of enlightenment.

Burma has a rich history in the production of intricate Buddhist artifacts, reflecting the deep cultural significance placed on spirituality and art. Many statues from this era were created to inspire devotion and meditation, serving as focal points in temples and homes. This antique Buddha not only embodies the religious heritage of the region but also represents a connection to the divine, making it a treasured piece for collectors and spiritual seekers alike.
