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. 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...

Japanese Wood Carved Polychrome Sculpture of a Seated Temple Monk, Edo Period

Located in Studio City, CA

This is truly a wonderful piece with clear age and a nice patina to it. Very unique. We have not seen another quite like it. The monk appears to have glass eyes which gives his expression a very humanistic feel. The head is removable (please see the last image). From a collection of Japanese arts and artifacts. Most likely dates back to the Edo period. Would make for a nice addition to any Japanese or Asian artifacts...
