Gold Sculpture of Standing Shakyamuni Buddha
We, the Kathmandu Valley artists have sculpted the Standing Shakyamuni Buddha sculpture. We have used copper to mold the body which is later glided with 24K genuine gold. The deity is depicted in his early childhood with the right hand pointing upward. The completion of this piece of art took us months of hard work in our studio. The use of Acrylic painting highlights the statue to a greater extent giving it mesmerizing look.
This will be a perfect gift for you as it will aid in your daily practices and meditation.

Siddhartha Gautama was born as the crown prince of the mighty Shakya Kingdom and nurtured to be a king in line with his royal father's aspirations. However, when he was around 29 years old, he learned about people's tremendous pain in life. He abandoned his palace life and gave up his magnificent robes and gold to uncover the reasons for this anguish and the methods to alleviate it. After nearly six years of study, self-deprivation, and severe concentration, he achieved his aim. He had attained enlightenment (a Buddha). He claimed to have then proceeded to a deer park in Sarnath (Benares), India, on the outskirts of Varanasi.
