Description

This antique bronze Burmese Buddha statue showcases the rich cultural heritage of Burma, now known as Myanmar. Dating back to the 17th century, this statue stands at 33.9 cm tall, with a width of 15.1 cm and a depth of 10.2 cm. The bronze material exhibits oxidation spots on the lower half, a testament to its long history and potential burial, giving it a unique character that reflects the passage of time.

Crafted in the Shan (Tai Yai) style, this statue features a serene facial expression that conveys tranquility and wisdom. The Bhumisparsha mudra, which depicts the moment of enlightenment, further enhances its spiritual significance, symbolizing the Buddha's call to the Earth to witness his attainment of nirvana.

Burma has a profound history intertwined with Buddhism, dating back over a millennium, where the religion has influenced art, culture, and daily life. The craftsmanship inherent in this statue highlights the advanced metalworking techniques of the period, which emphasized both aesthetics and devotion.

This remarkable figure not only serves as an exquisite decorative piece but also as a spiritual symbol, inviting reflection on the teachings of Buddha and the rich tapestry of Burmese history.
