Handmade Bodhisattva Oxidized Copper Figurine | Made in Nepal
This Handmade Bodhisattva Statue is crafted from an oxidized copper body, giving the sculpture a deep, naturally aged surface that enhances the richness of the metalwork. Measuring 37 cm (14.56 inches) in height with a 24 cm (9.4 inches) base and weighing 5.18 kg, it has a substantial presence while retaining finely worked details throughout. Deeply engraved carvings produce a magnificent 3D-like effect, adding pronounced depth and dimension to the sculpted surface. Carefully set gemstones provide subtle touches of color against the darker copper finish, creating an elegant contrast and decorative richness. The combination of oxidized copper craftsmanship, deep engraving, and gemstone embellishment reflects the precision and careful workmanship of skilled Nepalese artisans.
This Bodhisattva is depicted in a serene meditative posture upon an ornate double-lotus base, embodying wisdom, purity, and enlightened awareness. The figure wears an elaborate jeweled crown, large earrings, necklaces, armlets, and finely detailed celestial garments, emphasizing the regal appearance traditionally associated with enlightened Bodhisattvas. The calm facial expression and gently lowered eyes convey deep concentration and inner peace. The right hand extends downward with the palm open in the Varada Mudra, the gesture of generosity and the granting of blessings, while the left hand is raised gracefully and holds the stem of a blossoming lotus, a symbol of purity and spiritual awakening. An intricately carved aureole surrounds the figure, enhancing its sacred presence, while the lotus throne beneath symbolizes the ability to remain pure and awakened amid the conditions of samsara.
