About the Item
In the early 19th century, in the heart of Burma, a small but profoundly meaningful masterpiece emerged—a lacquered wooden sculpture that captures the essence of devotion and prayer. This exquisite creation, depicting a praying monk or orant, is a testament to the spiritual richness and artistic craftsmanship of its time.
As you set your eyes upon this delicate sculpture, you can't help but be drawn into a world of reverence and spirituality. It stands on a wooden pedestal, elevating its significance and allowing it to take center stage in any space. Every detail, lovingly crafted and meticulously carved by skilled hands, speaks to the devotion and artistry that brought it to life.
The sculpture's golden paint shimmers with an almost regal radiance, infusing the piece with an aura of opulence and majesty. It's as if the very essence of nobility has been infused into the wood, creating an atmosphere of reverence around the statuette.
Even the back of the sculpture reveals a story. A pigtail of hair, delicately carved, descends to the back—a symbol of the monk's humility and simplicity, a reminder of the spiritual journey he has undertaken.
This small monk statuette isn't just an art object; it's a source of spiritual connection and solace. It's perfect for adorning mystic-style living rooms or finding a special place in the corner of your living space. It serves as a beacon of faith and devotion, a reminder of the importance of religion and mantra in our lives.
In the presence of this sculpture, you'll find a sense of tranquility and a profound connection to the spiritual realm. It's a treasure that speaks to the soul, a reminder of the enduring power of prayer and devotion, and a symbol of the rich cultural heritage that continues to inspire and uplift us today.

Located in Milano, IT
In the heart of your sacred space, there resides a timeless masterpiece—a magnificent wooden Buddha sculpture that whispers secrets of the ages. Crafted with utmost devotion, this ethereal creation is believed to have its roots in the mystic lands of Burma, dating back to the 19th or perhaps even the early 20th century. As you gaze upon it, you'll find yourself transported through the corridors of history.

Seated in the full lotus position, the Buddha exudes an aura of tranquility that permeates every inch of your room. His right hand gracefully rests upon his knee, cradling a precious myrobalan fruit...
