Dealer notes
This compelling sculpture is a powerful invitation to serenity and devotion. This genuine stone fragment, likely carved in the 19th century Southeast Asia, depicts a high-status figure, possibly a Bodhisattva, seated in the Anjali Mudra (hands clasped in reverence or prayer). The figure wears a high, tiered crown, adding a layer of royal or divine status. The ancient stone’s deeply weathered texture and soft, earthy tones contrast powerfully with the sleek, two-toned custom wood display stand, transforming this relic of faith into a commanding piece of art. Measuring 6 inches wide and 9 inches high, this antique Buddha sculpture is an immediate focal point, perfect for anchoring a meditation space, shelf, or desk, bringing a sense of dignified tranquility to any interior. **Please bear in mind that colors of products shown may vary slightly from their original color due to monitor display settings or photography studio.
