About the Item
Place the Laughing Buddha in your living room or entrance hall, so he will be able to see the door. Meaning of happiness and abundance, this antique Buddha sculpture was hand carved in Asia, circa 1850. Sited with a big fat belly and wearing a robe, the Buddha is holding fruit in his left hand. Excellent condition with wonderful polychrome finish and gilt accents.
Millions of people around the world have a Laughing Buddha displayed in their homes. You do not have to be a Buddhist to have the statue in your home.
The Laughing Buddha is not worshiped. He is there only to help bring good energy, prosperity and luck into the home.
The main intent of the Laughing Buddha is that it is a constant reminder to smile, stay happy and enjoy your life.
This positive attitude will bring you even more blessing of prosperity.
