Our inspection confirms that it was hewn directly from the trunk of a hardwood tree with primitive hand tools – likely an \u003cstrong\u003eaddler or hand axe\u003c\/strong\u003e.

Beneath the remaining flakes of the \u003cstrong\u003eoriginal gold leaf\u003c\/strong\u003e, the traditional red cinnabar lacquer is visible, which has become matte and weathered over the centuries. The deep erosion of the wood and the layered patina of soot, incense and time give this object a museum authority that cannot be imitated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #b08d57; margin-top: 25px;\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%; color: #fff; border-collapse: collapse;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(176,141,87,0.3);\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; font-weight: bold; color: #b08d57; width: 30%;\"\u003ePeriod:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px;\"\u003e18th century (c. 1750-1820)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(176,141,87,0.3);\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; font-weight: bold; color: #b08d57;\"\u003eTechnique:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px;\"\u003eHand-carved relief on solid hardwood\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(176,141,87,0.3);\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; font-weight: bold; color: #b08d57;\"\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px;\"\u003eHeight approx. 40 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(176,141,87,0.3);\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; font-weight: bold; color: #b08d57;\"\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px;\"\u003eOriginal lacquer layer, gold leaf remnants, adze marks\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003chr style=\"border: 0; border-top: 1px solid rgba(176,141,87,0.5); margin: 30px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height: 1.6; font-size: 0.95rem; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA powerful spiritual wall object for the serious collector who recognizes the value of genuine age and historical craftsmanship.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"1stbuddha","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57163558388043,"sku":"228","price":395.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1012\/6170\/5547\/files\/antiek-18e-eeuws-boeddha-paneel-bladgoud.jpg?v=1777547924","url":"https:\/\/1stbuddha.com\/products\/museum-quality-18th-century-buddha-temple-panel-gold-leaf","provider":"1stbuddha","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
