Antique Bronze Vasudhara Statue – 17th Century
A refined female Buddhist deity symbolizing abundance and spiritual wealth.
This special bronze statue depicts Vasudhara, the Buddhist goddess of prosperity and abundance. The elegant, feminine form and the serene, almost inviting smile give the statue a calm yet powerful appearance.
The subtle, cup-shaped hand – slightly directed forward – suggests the offering of blessings and abundance. This gesture aligns with Vasudhara's role as a giver of prosperity and spiritual wealth.
The statue is crafted in an early Southeast Asian style with clear Khmer influences. The deep, natural patina with visible oxidation and mineral composition confirms its age and long-term use as a devotional object.
Characteristic of older bronzes from this region is the simplification of attributes. Here, the essence of the deity is not defined by objects, but by posture, expression, and presence.
