Description

This exquisite antique wooden Burmese Shan Buddha, measuring 24.2 cm in height, is a remarkable representation of 19th-century artistry from Burma (Myanmar). Crafted from wood and elegantly gilded with 24-karat gold, this statue exemplifies the Shan style, known for its intricate details and graceful forms. The attention to craftsmanship is evident in the delicate patterns adorning the Buddha’s robes and the serene expression on his face.

The statue depicts the revered Bhumisparsha mudra, where the Buddha touches the earth with his right hand. This gesture symbolizes the moment of enlightenment, representing the Buddha's call for the earth as a witness to his attainment of Nirvana.

Burma has a rich cultural tapestry influenced by Buddhism for centuries, forming a pivotal aspect of its identity. The Shan people, one of the country's ethnic groups, have maintained unique artistic traditions that reflect their spiritual heritage and history. This piece not only serves as a spiritual symbol but also as a testament to the enduring legacy of Burmese craftsmanship and the spiritual significance that Buddhism holds in the region.

At a weight of 374 grams and dimensions of 12.7 cm wide and 6.4 cm deep, this statue is a substantial yet graceful addition to any collection, capturing the essence of both history and devotion.
