About the Item
The sculpture, expertly carved from fragrant Nepalese sandalwood, stands as a testament to the rich tradition of wood carving in Nepal. The medium itself adds a sensory dimension to the artwork, with the subtle, natural aroma of sandalwood enhancing the overall experience.
The focal point of the carving is Buddha, depicted in a serene and meditative posture under the intricately carved Bodhi tree. The details on Buddha's face are finely chiseled, capturing the essence of enlightenment and inner peace. His eyes, half-closed in meditation, convey a sense of transcendental wisdom.
Surrounding Buddha are the five disciples, each meticulously carved in a unique pose that reflects their individual personalities. The disciples, with expressions ranging from reverence to introspection, symbolize the diversity of spiritual seekers on the path to enlightenment.
The Bodhi tree itself is adorned with delicate leaves and branches, showcasing the artisan's attention to detail. The roots of the tree snake around the base of the sculpture, symbolizing the grounded nature of Buddha's teachings.
The entire scene is set on a carved platform that represents the sacred ground where the enlightenment took place. The platform might feature additional symbolic elements such as lotus flowers, a symbol of purity, and intricate patterns inspired by Nepalese art and culture.
The sandalwood carving is finished with a smooth and polished surface, enhancing the tactile experience. The natural color variations in the sandalwood add warmth and depth to the sculpture.
This exquisite piece of art not only serves as a visual delight but also carries profound spiritual symbolism, making it a meaningful and culturally rich representation of Buddhism in Nepalese artistry.

Large wooden Buddha sculpture probably Laos, 19th-20th century
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.
This remarkable Buddha, a harmonious blend of two distinct eras, is a testament to the enduring spirit of artistry. Its features evoke echoes of a bygone era, the Pagan period, a time when devotion was expressed through the chisel and the keen eye of a master sculptor. The small, delicate mouth seems to whisper ancient wisdom, while the wide forehead exudes an aura of profound contemplation. The narrow waist and the gently rounded shoulders and chest reveal the artistry's meticulous attention to detail, capturing the essence of a bygone Burmese sculptural style.
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...
