About the Item
A remarkable early Korean bronze Buddha, though this iconic style was occasionally emulated in later centuries. Careful examination of the wear, patina, underside, and casting technique strongly supports an early dating, attesting to its authenticity and historical significance. The figure is distinguished by its unforgettable face, particularly the uniquely treated eyes, which convey a serene yet penetrating spiritual presence. Evidence suggests that the Buddha originally featured a nimbus or backplate behind the head, enhancing its sacred aura. Measuring 5.25 inches high, 2 inches wide, and 1.5 inches deep, and weighing 335 grams, this finely cast figure exemplifies the refined artistry and devotional purpose of early Korean Buddhist sculpture. A rare and museum-quality example, it combines technical mastery with profound spiritual expression.

15th Century Japanese Bronze Baby Buddha, Large, Refined and Graceful-Special!
Located in Ukiah, CA
Baby Buddha- represents the Buddha right after his birth pointing toward Heaven and Earth so they can witness his first steps. Twenty years ago I had a near identical Japanese Baby Buddha. This one has a finer patina and may be more finely cast, but is extremely similar in almost every way. It was made in the same workshop, probably by the same hand. Fortunately, the other one had an inscription on it (this one does not, but is almost certainly the same age as the other one plus or minus 30 years). The woman I mentored at the time was able to read Japanese- she translated the year to late 15th century Japan...
