About the Item

Large Antique Buddha (99 cm) from a Temple in Burma, crafted in hardwood, likely Burma teak. Beautifully and intricately carved, the Buddha is depicted in Bhūmisparśa Mudrā, a classic hand gesture symbolizing Buddha’s triumph over Mara and the moment of enlightenment. The figure sits serenely on a lotus-shaped base. The entire figure is fully gilded in 24-karat gold leaf over a red lacquered foundation, creating a rich and deep tone. The natural, age-related patina enhances its authentic historical character. This Buddha exudes a tranquil and majestic presence, serving as an outstanding example of Burmese craftsmanship from the period. Provenance: From a Danish private collection. Burma, 18th-19th century (1700s-1800s) 32.5 KG
