About the Item

This is a wooden Jizo Bodhisattva statue made in the late Edo period in Japan. It is thought that they were not carved by Buddhist sculptors living in central cities such as Kyoto or Edo, but by local pilgrims, carpenters, and craftsmen who made wooden dolls. Therefore, the Buddha statue itself is not carved using traditional carving techniques that have been passed down since ancient times, but the balance of the body of the Buddha statue is carved using the unique techniques of the sculptor himself, so the unique balance of the body and facial expressions are expressed. However, the face and other parts are carefully sculpted as if to express a prayer. Is beautiful. It's shiny because it's been touched so many times. Unlike Buddha images housed in large temples, these images are kept in houses or in small village halls, so these images are blackened by soot and shiny from friction when dust is wiped off. It was probably placed there to be close to people's hearts. Both hands are missing. The front part of the left foot has been jointed and sculpted. The front part of the left foot was probably made that way from the beginning. Because high-quality wood was expensive, it is thought that there were times when it was not possible to prepare a perfect square lumber. The size allows you to hold it in one hand, so you can display it anywhere. This is an attractive Buddha statue, so why not display it in your home? it's recommended. Weight: 570g [We offer Japanese antique furniture and tools that are different from the Japanese antique furniture and art that have been appreciated abroad.

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. ]

Rare Japanese antique wooden god statue /12th century/small wabi-sabi figurines

Located in Sammu-shi, Chiba

I was able to obtain a very rare item. This is a sculpture of the god ``Shinzo''. "Shin" = God "zo" = statue Since ancient times in Japan, it has been believed that gods reside in all things in the universe, and there have been many shrines. In the 6th century, Buddhism was introduced and gradually spread throughout Japan. Around the 8th century, the idea that gods follow the teachings of Buddha spread. Until the Edo period, God and Buddha became one and the idea of ``Shinto and Buddhism syncretism'' was established. This statue was created during such a history. Originally, the image of God was invisible and could not be understood as something tangible. However, with the introduction of Buddhism to Japan, idol worship was also introduced, and the idea that the gods follow the teachings of Buddha was also propagated at the same time in order to spread the teachings of Buddhism. Around that time, around the 9th century, the first statues of gods...
