Seated Bronze Buddha in Vitarka Mudra on Lotus Base – 29 cm, Brown Patina

A seated bronze Buddha standing 29 cm tall and weighing 4.1 kg, on a double lotus base with a beaded rim. He sits in meditation posture with the right hand raised in vitarka mudra, the gesture of teaching, while the left hand rests in his lap. A small auspicious mark is engraved on the chest.

The face is serene, with lowered eyes, long earlobes and a gentle smile. The hair is rendered in small curls that continue over the ushnisha, topped by a round finial. The robe falls over the left shoulder in carefully modelled folds. The bronze has a warm brown patina with a soft sheen on the high points.

Condition

Good condition. The underside is closed with a dark bottom plate. Light signs of use consistent with age.
