Description
This antique votive figure statuette, with dimensions of 7 cm in height, 3 cm in width, and 2 cm in depth (approximately 2.76 inches by 1.18 inches by 0.79 inches), is crafted from bronze and dates from the 18th to 19th century. The statue portrays the Buddha in a classic meditation pose known as Dhyana Mudra, with one hand over the other, palms facing upward in the lap, symbolizing deep concentration and tranquility. This particular mudra is associated with the meditation practiced by the Buddha during his quest for enlightenment. The statuette's style, including the flame-shaped ushnisha on top of the head, indicates it originates from the Southeast Asian Buddhist tradition, likely from Thailand or the surrounding regions. Such figures were created for personal worship, serving as an aid for meditation and reminders of the Buddha's teachings on the path to enlightenment. The weathering and patina suggest it may have been used in a household shrine or temple environment.
