Wooden Meditating Buddha Statue

Serene Wooden Buddha Statue in Abhaya Mudra with Bodhi Tree Foliage

This magnificent piece is a hand-carved KADAM wooden statue depicting the historical Gautama Buddha seated in profound meditation, an ideal centerpiece for any space dedicated to peace and contemplation.

Key Features:

Pose and Mudra: The Buddha is seated in the traditional Padmasana (Lotus Position). The right hand is raised in the Abhaya Mudra, a gesture symbolizing fearlessness, blessing, and protection, offering reassurance and peace to the viewer. The left hand rests gently on the lap.
Artistic Detailing: The carving is highly detailed, featuring a subtle, serene expression on the face, a decorative crown (possibly representing a crowned Buddha form like Sambhogakaya), and finely etched flowing robes.
Bodhi Tree Back Panel: The statue is framed by an integrated, intricately carved canopy of leaves and branches, likely representing the sacred Bodhi Tree under which the Buddha achieved enlightenment.
Lotus Base: The Buddha rests upon a detailed Lotus Base (Padmasana), a symbol of purity, enlightenment, and transcendence rising above the material world.
Material and Finish: Crafted from a beautiful medium-brown wood, the natural grain and expert carving highlight the tranquility and spiritual depth of the image.
