About the Item
This antique wooden Burmese Shan Buddha statue is a remarkable piece of religious artistry and craftsmanship. Carved from wood, it stands at a height of 29 cm with dimensions of 15.5 cm in width and 8.7 cm in depth.
The statue belongs to the Shan (Tai Yai) style, a distinctive Burmese artistic tradition known for its elegance and attention to detail. The Buddha is depicted in the Bhumisparsha mudra, a hand gesture that symbolizes the moment of the Buddha's enlightenment, calling the earth to witness.
One of the most striking features of this statue is its gilding. It has been meticulously covered with 24-karat gold leaf, giving it a radiant and opulent appearance. This gilding is not only a testament to the craftsmanship but also a symbol of the reverence and devotion of the artist and the community.
Believed to date back to the early 19th century, this statue carries with it the spiritual heritage of Burma (Myanmar) and the Shan people. It is a representation of the rich religious and artistic traditions of the region.
This exquisite Buddha statue is more than just a work of art; it's a window into the deep spiritual traditions of Burma. Its presence can bring a sense of serenity and mindfulness to any space and serves as a reminder of the enlightenment sought by Buddhists around the world.
