This exquisite large Burmese Shan Buddha statue stands at 127 cm tall and 83 cm wide, embodying the remarkable artistry of the 18th century. Crafted from lacquerware and gilded with 24-karat gold, this piece showcases the intricate craftsmanship characteristic of the Shan style, also known as Tai Yai. The detailed ornamentation reflects the rich cultural heritage of Burma (Myanmar), where Buddhas are revered for their spiritual significance.

The Bhumisparsha mudra, depicted in this statue, symbolizes the moment of enlightenment and the Buddha's victory over temptation. This gesture, wherein the Buddha touches the earth, is a powerful reminder of the historical moment when Siddhartha Gautama achieved enlightenment under the Bodhi tree.

The history of Buddhism in Burma dates back thousands of years, profoundly influencing its cultural landscape. The Shan people, primarily residing in the northern regions, have significantly contributed to the artistic expression of Buddhism, blending local traditions with religious themes.

This statue, while not inexpensive, holds exceptional value for collectors and spiritual practitioners alike. Its perfect condition enhances its allure, making it not just a decorative piece, but a significant symbol of peace and enlightenment, an enduring testament to the art of a bygone era.
