Himalayan Traditional Tibetan Buddhist Statue of Lord Amitayus
The Buddhist Statue of Lord Amitayus is a meticulously hand-carved piece of art from Nepal, created using traditional Himalayan art techniques. The deity is depicted seated on a moon disc lotus holding a vase filled with the nectar of immortality. Copper was used for the statue's molding, and the figure features hand-carved artistic design patterns. The statue's two most prominent features, the robe, and crown, are embellished with semi-valuable corals and gemstones. The prints were carefully hand-carved, and the figurine was gilded in real 24K gold. The lotus throne where Lord Amitayus is seated was also designed very well with all those unique and creative designs. One of many attractions of this Amitayus Statue would be those designed over the halo and backrest of the throne.

Amitayus, of the Aparimitagunasamchaya or Amitavyhavat pure world, is usually shown in his apparitional buddha form (sambhogakaya), red in color, wearing a crown and jewels, and holding a long-life vase over two hands in a meditation gesture. A Buddha is said to have three bodies in the Mahayana Buddhist tradition: a form body (nirmanakaya), an apparitional body (sambhogakaya), and an ultimate truth body (sambhogakaya) (dharmakaya).
