Crown Shakyamuni Buddha Traditional Sculpture | Made in Nepal
This Crown Shakyamuni Buddha Traditional Sculpture reflects the intricate artistry and refined craftsmanship of Himalayan Buddhist sculpture. Measuring 73 cm (28.74 inches) in height with a 52.5 cm (20.7 inches) base and weighing 26.57 kg, it features a copper body enhanced with 24K gold gilding, detailed acrylic painting, and carefully set gemstones. The radiant gold finish highlights the finely modeled contours and elaborate crown and ornamental details, while the acrylic painting adds definition and the gemstones provide subtle color and decorative depth. The combination of precise metalwork, gilding, painting, and gemstone setting demonstrates the patience, skill, and traditional expertise involved in creating this large-scale sacred sculpture.
Crown Shakyamuni Buddha Sculpture portrays the historical Buddha in a refined regal form that expresses both spiritual sovereignty and complete awakening. Seated in a meditative posture, his right hand forms the Bhumisparsha Mudra, the “earth-touching” gesture that recalls his enlightenment beneath the Bodhi tree and the Earth bearing witness to his unwavering resolve. The ornate crown distinguishes this form, symbolizing the dignity of Buddhahood and, in Himalayan iconography, often evoking the Five Buddha Families and Five Wisdoms. His serene expression and balanced posture convey profound inner stability, while the union of regal adornment and contemplative stillness reflects the transformation from princely life to enlightened realization.
