Handcrafted Shakyamuni Buddha Statue | Emblem of Unwavering Peace
This serene meditation statue of Shakyamuni Buddha embodies a moment of profound stillness and awakening. Cast in copper with a deep, oxidized finish, the sculpture conveys a timeless presence. Standing at 8.3 inches (21 cm) tall with a base of 5.5 inches (14 cm) and weighing 1.29 kg, its modest size and substantial weight make it an ideal focal point for personal devotion.
