Description

This exquisite antique wooden Buddha statue hails from Burma (Myanmar), embodying the rich artistic heritage of the Ava period, which flourished in the 17th to 18th centuries. Standing 52 cm tall and crafted from wood, this statue showcases meticulous craftsmanship, highlighted by its gilding with 24 karat gold, which imbues it with a radiant dignity and spiritual significance.

The Ava style is characterized by its elegant proportions and serene expressions, reflecting the tranquility and wisdom associated with the Buddha. These statues were commonly used in meditation and worship, serving as a focal point for spiritual practice. The rounded features and flowing robes of the statue mirror traditional depictions of the Buddha, believed to embody peace and enlightenment.

This particular piece weighs 1.47 kg and measures 14.6 cm in width and 12.6 cm in depth, making it a substantial yet manageable addition to any collection. The weathered base signifies its historical journey, while the gilding reflects the cultural importance of gold in Buddhist traditions, symbolizing purity and the divine.

Burma, known for its long-standing Buddhist heritage, has produced a wealth of religious art that continues to inspire and educate. Owning this Buddha statue not only connects one to the historical and spiritual depths of Burmese culture but also serves as a reminder of the universal quest for peace and understanding.
