The Buddha sits in the Bhumisparsha mudra, with the right hand touching the earth. This posture refers to the moment of enlightenment, in which the Buddha remains steadfast and calls upon the earth as a witness.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:16px; margin:0 0 18px 0;\"\u003e\nThe meaning of this image lies in grounding, protection, inner certainty, and enlightenment. It is a powerful symbol for people who wish to bring more peace, stability, and spiritual focus into their home or personal space. The posture serves as a reminder to stand firm, even when there is unrest, doubt, or change.\n\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:16px; margin:0 0 18px 0;\"\u003e\nThe image is hand-carved from wood and displays the characteristic Shan style with a high-raised flame-shaped ushnisha, a restrained face, and elongated, stylized fingers. The weathered lacquer residue, old patina, drying cracks, and rough wooden base give the object a strong, untouched appearance of age. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:16px; margin:0 0 18px 0;\"\u003e\nBeneath the base lies an old inventory number and a lead collection or export seal. This reinforces the historical character of the sculpture and points to an older collection or provenance history. Due to its austere appearance and weathered surface, this sculpture possesses a powerful wabi-sabi beauty: pure, honest, and spiritually present. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"border-top:1px solid #b08d57; border-bottom:1px solid #b08d57; padding:18px 0; margin:24px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 8px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"color:#b08d57;\"\u003eRepresentation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Seated Buddha in Bhumisparsha mudra\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 8px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"color:#b08d57;\"\u003eMeaning:\u003c\/strong\u003e Grounding, protection, inner strength, steadfastness, and enlightenment\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 8px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"color:#b08d57;\"\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hand-carved wood with old lacquer and patina residue\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 8px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"color:#b08d57;\"\u003eOrigin \/ style:\u003c\/strong\u003e Burma \/ Myanmar, Shan style\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 8px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"color:#b08d57;\"\u003eDating:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18th–19th century\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 8px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"color:#b08d57;\"\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.8 kg\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"color:#b08d57;\"\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Antique, heavily weathered condition with old cracks, wear, loss of lacquer, and natural wood aging\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:16px; margin:0;\"\u003e\n\nA powerful and meaningful Shan Buddha statue for those seeking an authentic spiritual object with tranquility and history and deep symbolism.
