This magnificent Maitreya Buddha Statue stands at 53.5”/136cm in height and 38.6”/98cm at the base, weighing 60.62 kg. Meticulously crafted from copper, covered with a triple layer of 24K gold gilding, enhanced with silver plating, and adorned with gemstones and detailed gold & acrylic paintings, it is carved with deeply engraved patterns that create a magnificent 3D-like effect. Exemplifying the highest level of traditional Nepali artistry, this statue is designed for temples, spiritual halls, or grand altars. It honors Maitreya—the future Buddha prophesied to bring universal compassion and wisdom in a coming age of peace and enlightenment.
This grand Maitreya Buddha statue is richly adorned with symbolic iconography. He is seated gracefully on an intricately carved throne, representing royal ease and spiritual authority. He performs the Dharmachakra Mudra, the gesture of teaching, with both hands held at the chest while seated in a double-lotus posture. Two lotuses rise beside him—the right bearing a Dharma wheel, symbolizing his role as the future teacher of the Dharma, and the left supporting a kalasha, representing long life and sacred teachings. He wears a five-pointed crown, symbolizing the Five Dhyani Buddhas, and a flowing scarf swirls around his shoulders, adding a sense of movement and celestial grace.
The throne is crowned with a regal parasol, under which sits Garuda flanked by two consorts, symbolizing protection and liberation. Below them are makaras on both sides—mythical water creatures symbolizing strength and fearlessness. The base of the throne is elaborately adorned with lotus flowers and detailed carvings of animals such as snow lions, elephants, and tigers, representing power, wisdom, and nobility. This iconography collectively portrays Maitreya as the future Buddha who will descend to renew the Dharma and lead beings to awakening in an era of harmony and enlightenment.
