A serene and substantial seated Buddha sculpture, masterfully cast in bronze and engraved with intricate floral and geometric motifs. Depicted in dhyana mudra (the gesture of meditation), the figure sits in lotus position atop a stylized, pierced lotus pedestal. With a calm expression and finely modeled features, this piece radiates quiet strength and spiritual presence.
Likely of Nepalese origin and crafted in the Tibetan style, this sculpture was produced in the mid-20th century using traditional hollow-cast bronze techniques. The surface is richly hand-engraved with repeating lotus and rosette patterns across the robes and body. Classic details such as the elongated earlobes, domed ushnisha, and tightly curled hair mark this as a faithful representation of Shakyamuni Buddha.
The base is open and unsealed, and the visible weld seams, reddish oxidation at the joins, and warm brown patina with subtle verdigris confirm it as cast bronze rather than brass. The sculpture is substantial yet manageable for display, and makes a powerful focal point whether indoors or in a covered garden.
A timeless and spiritually resonant work of art for meditation spaces, altars, or sculptural display.
23" wide, 17" deep, and 32.5" high.
