About the Item
This beautiful Budai sculpture, crafted from blue and white jade, represents the famous "Happy Buddha" or "Fortune Buddha," a symbol of serenity, abundance, and joy. With his welcoming smile and relaxed posture, Budai embodies inner peace and prosperity. The jade, known for its spiritual and protective qualities, adds a touch of preciousness to the figure, making it a powerful talisman of good fortune.
On his shoulders, he carries his characteristic sack, a symbol of luck and abundance, which, according to tradition, never empties, filling with precious gifts for the poor and needy. This element emphasizes his role as a benefactor and protector of the weak, while rubbing his large belly is considered a gesture of good luck, bringing wealth and prosperity.
Not only in Buddhism but also in Taoism, Budai is revered as a deity of abundance and contentment, embodying the idea of being satisfied with what one has. This sculpture, with its reassuring smile and symbolic sack, radiates an aura of harmony and positivity, perfect for enriching any space with an atmosphere of spiritual peace and serenity.
A work of great artistic and symbolic value, ideal for those seeking a piece that combines aesthetic beauty with spiritual depth.

Budai Buddha in dark jade
Located in Milano, IT
This exquisite dark jade Budai, also known as the Laughing Buddha, is a cherished symbol of happiness, prosperity, and abundance in Chinese Buddhist iconography. The figure of Budai, often depicted with a joyful smile and a round, protruding belly, is said to represent contentment, generosity, and the joy of life. Historically, Budai is believed to have been based on an eccentric Chinese Zen monk who lived during the 10th century. Over time, his image evolved to become a symbol of prosperity and well-being, beloved in both religious and cultural contexts.
Skillfully carved from dark jade, a stone highly valued in Chinese culture for its association with purity, wisdom, and protection, this sculpture brings both spiritual and artistic significance. Jade has held a special place in Chinese history for millennia, considered more precious than gold and revered for its ability to ward off evil and bring balance. The rich green hues of the dark jade in this Budai sculpture enhance the overall sense of calm and serenity that the figure embodies.
The craftsmanship in this piece is evident in the intricate carving of Budai's flowing robes and expressive features. His smiling face radiates warmth and positivity, while his posture-relaxed and grounded-symbolizes inner peace and harmony. This dark jade Budai is more than just a decorative item; it is a reminder of the importance of joy, kindness, and generosity in everyday life.
Perfect for both spiritual and decorative purposes, this Budai statue...
