Antique Japanese Jizo Bodhisattva Stone Buddha/Edo Period/Niigata Prefecture

About the Item

I am pleased to introduce a small, simple, and charming stone statue of Jizo Bosatsu (Jizo Bodhisattva), created around the Edo period. This Jizo Bosatsu statue is a rarity, with a design unique to the area around Sado Island in Niigata Prefecture, Japan. (For reference, we have included a photo of a group of stone Buddhas from Sado Island.) Jizo Bosatsu is known in Buddhism as a benevolent and gentle being who protects people, especially children and travelers, from hardship and danger. The seated figure of the Jizo Bosatsu, with its hands clasped together in silent prayer, evokes a sense of peace and serenity in the hearts of those who see it. The stone is granite-like in texture but gentle, and its rustic appearance has been polished with time, and the soft blurring caused by age accentuates its depth of flavor. Although small in size, it is characterized by a well-balanced form unique to this region, giving it an understated yet impressive presence. Placed casually in an entryway or under the eaves of a roof, it will greet visitors with a sense of serenity, while decorating a room, living room, study, or even a collection room will create an atmosphere of atmospheric serenity and warmth. Especially when displayed on bookshelves or antique furniture, they add peace and serenity to even the smallest of spaces. The Jizo Bosatsu stone Buddha can only be found in a limited area, mainly on Sado Island. This is a gem to be cherished and enjoyed as a special interior decoration with a Japanese historical flavor. Weight: 3.25 kg [We are a company consisting of four different stores with four different brands. We offer a wide range of attractive items from all over the world with a focus on Japanese items. We offer Japanese antique furniture and tools that are different from the Japanese antique furniture and art that have been appreciated abroad. These tools were used in private homes and farmhouses in the past. They have been passed through a long time and have an attractive taste. The reality is that many of these items are now being discarded along with the demolition of houses. We are on a mission to re-evaluate these fascinating old objects and preserve them for future generations. And we have seen tens of thousands of items so far. We have used that experience to list the most fascinating items here. We can do this because of our long experience. We will rediscover the "beauty" produced in the life and culture of the common people, which is different from the Japanese art and culture that is known and scattered around the world, and present it to the world. ]

Located in Sammu-shi, Chiba

This is a small stone statue believed to have been made in Japan during the mid to late Edo period (18th to 19th century). The figure represents "Jizo Bosatsu" (Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva), one of the revered bodhisattvas in the Buddhist tradition. Jizo is a figure of infinite compassion, believed to save all sentient beings from suffering. He is typically depicted as a gentle monk, with a shaved head and wearing a long robe known as kesa. He often holds a staff in his right hand and a hoju (wish-fulfilling jewel) in his left—symbols of his power to guide souls and grant comfort. This particular Jizo statue...
