This is a 19th-century Tibetan Buddha statue in bronze with clear remnants of original fire gilding in 24-carat gold. The gold has worn naturally over time and is visibly embedded in the folds and recessed areas of the statue, not as a modern layer applied on top, but truly interwoven with the surface. This gives the statue that warm, weathered appearance seen only in old gilded work.

The posture is calm and powerful at the same time, featuring a classic meditation position instantly recognizable within the Tibetan Buddhist tradition. The bronze feels heavy and compact for its size and shows no signs of modern production. The interior and underside display a rough, aged texture with natural oxidation, consistent with traditional Tibetan casting from the 19th century.

This is not a decorative object without history, but a serious devotional statue intended for long-term use. An honest, authentic Tibetan Buddha with visible age and character.
