About the Item

Stoneware Buddha head, Shan State Kingdom, Burma, 16th/18th century Buddha head from a temple facing built entirely of mud bricks during the 16th/18th century. Maravijaya Buddha. Shan period, Burma. The finesse of the master sculptor's work is remarkable here: the large almond-shaped eyes with half-closed eyelids advocate introspection and humility, while the fine, well-defined mouth with pronounced corners preaches benevolence and universal love.

This Buddha exudes emotion and wisdom, inviting the viewer's eye and mind to meditative calm and enlightened concentration. This collector's piece stands out for its fine craftsmanship and its expression of wisdom, from which emanates great spirituality. Properly pedestal-mounted, this piece exudes serenity and soothing energy, and can easily be placed in your home on a shelf or in a bookcase. Height 36 cm on base.
