Traditionally Hand Carved Siddartha Gautama Sculpture
The sculpture of Siddartha Gautama Buddha was expertly hand-painted using acrylic colors, carved from a copper body, and gilded with pure 24K gold. With a serene look and an alms bowl in his left hand, while touching the mudra of the earth with his right, the deity is depicted seated atop a moon disc lotus seat. The craftsmanship of sculpting such statues has been passed down from one generation to another over centuries. The molding of the copper with intricate patterns on the robe and acrylic painting took us months of work in our studio.
This Himalayan figure will be a tremendous gift from Nepal to a practitioner like you.

Shakyamuni Buddha has spent countless eons engaging in various Bodhisattva acts to achieve enlightenment. He is considered the founder of Buddhism, and most Buddhist schools see him as a savior, the Enlightened One who unearthed an old path to liberate oneself from clinging and craving and break the cycle of birth and rebirth.
