Himalayan Buddhist Copper Sculpture | Enlightenment Figurine for Shrine & Meditation
Measuring 19.5 inches tall, this traditional Shakyamuni Buddha figurine is crafted from copper and finished with a triple layer of radiant 24K gold gilding, complemented by delicate gold and acrylic paint accents. Created by talented Nepali artisans from the Shakya clan, who carry a rich legacy of metalworking, the statue is carved with deeply engraved patterns that produce a magnificent 3D-like effect. The Buddha is portrayed in a serene meditative stance, with his right hand touching the earth to symbolize enlightenment and his left hand resting peacefully in his lap, inviting calm and mindful reflection.
Shakyamuni Buddha is depicted seated in padmasana (lotus posture) upon a finely detailed lotus base, a symbol of purity and enlightenment. His right hand touches the earth in bhumisparsha mudra, the gesture of calling the world to witness his awakening beneath the Bodhi tree. His left hand rests in his lap, holding an alms bowl, signifying renunciation, simplicity, and the nourishment of wisdom. The serene presence of this statue reflects the moment of enlightenment and the eternal transmission of Dharma.

Shakyamuni Buddha, also known as Gautama Buddha or Siddhartha Gautama, is the historical founder of Buddhism. Born a prince in the sixth century BCE in what is now Nepal, he abandoned his royal existence in search of a solution to human misery. After years of spiritual effort and deep meditation, he achieved enlightenment beneath the Bodhi tree in Bodh Gaya, India. He was then referred to as Shakyamuni, which means "Sage of the Shakya Clan."
