This exquisite antique wooden Burmese Buddha statue, dating back to the 19th century, stands at a height of 24 cm and showcases intricate craftsmanship characteristic of Mandalay style. The figure is elaborately gilded with 24-karat gold, a practice that emphasizes the sanctity and spiritual significance of the Buddha in Burmese culture.

The Bhumisparsha mudra is depicted here, symbolizing the moment of the Buddha's enlightenment and his call to the earth to bear witness to his spiritual awakening. This gesture captures an essential moment in Buddhist tradition, representing determination and steadfastness.

Originating from Burma (Myanmar), this region has a rich history of Buddhist artistry that flourished between the 18th and 19th centuries, reflecting both indigenous styles and influences from neighboring cultures. The statue is not only a representation of the Buddha but also an embodiment of spiritual devotion and artistic heritage, making it a valuable piece for collectors and spiritual seekers alike.

With a width of 14.2 cm and a depth of 8.5 cm, and weighing 361 grams, this statue stands out as a magnificent representation of Myanmar’s artistic legacy, blending religious significance with aesthetic appeal.
