Japanese Seated Edo Buddha Amida Nyorai Wood Carved & Gilt-Lacquered Sculpture

About the Item

This truly a magnificent piece. Stunning. Beautiful. Supremely serene. Meticulously hand carved in such fine and amazing detail (see hands and flowing robes). Gilded throughout. Seated with narrowed eyes in deep meditation and hands in Buddhist Abhaya Mudra position offering a blessing of protection, reassurance, peace and benevolence. This hand position, also known as the "fear not" gesture, was achieved by Buddha immediately following his enlightenment The Buddha sculpture comes with a wonderfully red lacquered base that may have been added at a later date. We are listing this work as from the late 18th century/ early 19th century but we feel it could easily be much older possibly dating back to the 17th century but likely sometime during the Edo period, (1603-1868). This is, again, truly such an amazing piece like none we have seen before. It would be the crown jewel in any collection or setting. Dimensions (with base): 13.5" high, 11.5" wide, 11.5" deep.

Carved Wood Gilt-Lacquered Sculpture of Seated Japanese Edo Buddha Amida Nyorai

Located in Studio City, CA

A truly beautiful and supremely serene Japanese Amida Nyorai Buddha. A magnificent work. Meticulously hand carved in such fine and amazing detail (see hands and flowing robes). Gilded throughout. Seated with narrowed eyes in deep meditation and hands in Buddhist Abhaya Mudra position offering a blessing of protection, reassurance, peace, and benevolence. This hand position, also known as the "fear not" gesture, was achieved by Buddha immediately following his enlightenment. This work is from the late Edo period, (1603-1868)/ early Meiji period (1868-1912). From a California collection. Would be a fantastic addition to any Japanese or Asian artifacts/buddha collection or eye-catching stand-alone accent work in about any setting. One of the best Japanese Buddha sculptures...

Japanese Wood Carved Polychrome Sculpture of a Seated Temple Monk, Edo Period

Located in Studio City, CA

This is truly a wonderful piece with clear age and a nice patina to it. Very unique. We have not seen another quite like it. The monk appears to have glass eyes which gives his expression a very humanistic feel. The head is removable (please see the last image). From a collection of Japanese arts and artifacts. Most likely dates back to the Edo period. Would make for a nice addition to any Japanese or Asian artifacts...
