This unique Javanese Buddha statue represents a rare synergy between ancient spiritual traditions and the history of collecting. The statue, executed in the classic Majapahit Revival style, bears the characteristic iconography of the 'Double Vitarka Mudra', symbolizing both the teaching and protection of the spiritual path.
The authenticity of this piece is underscored by the dendritic malachite patina and microscopic remnants of original 'prada' (gold leaf), which bear witness to a rich temple history. The internal core, consisting of authentic volcanic ash clay from the region, confirms its Javanese provenance.
Transparency in Conservation: Given the fragility of such antique pieces, a structural break was professionally stabilized in the past using modern resin techniques. This intervention, fully visible under UV light, ensures the integrity of the statue for future generations and highlights the careful handling of this heritage.
