This Golden Gautama Buddha Artwork measures 8.7”/22cm in height and 6.3”/16cm at the base, weighing 1.75 kg. Expertly handcrafted from copper and adorned with 24K gold gilding and intricate gold and acrylic detailing, this statue reflects the serene presence of the historical Buddha, Shakyamuni. Depicted in classic meditative posture with a tranquil expression, it embodies the essence of enlightenment, peace, and awakened wisdom. Ideal for home altars, meditation spaces, or spiritual environments, it serves as a powerful reminder of the Buddha’s path to liberation.
In his iconography, Gautama Buddha, also known as Shakyamuni Buddha, is depicted seated in vajrāsana (diamond posture) atop a lotus base, symbolizing spiritual purity and enlightenment. His right hand reaches downward in the Bhumisparsha Mudra (earth-touching gesture), calling the Earth to witness the moment of his enlightenment beneath the Bodhi tree, symbolizing his triumph over ignorance and inner obstacles.
His left hand rests in his lap holding an alms bowl, a symbol of renunciation, humility, and the monastic path. The alms bowl also represents the nourishment of wisdom and the disciplined life of a spiritual practitioner. His serene facial expression, ushnisha (cranial bump), urna (tuft between the brows), and elongated earlobes all reflect the enlightened qualities of the Buddha, making this iconography a profound representation of awakening and compassion.

Shakyamuni Buddha renounced his royal life to pursue a more profound truth that transcended material pleasures and suffering. He was born Prince Siddhartha of the Shakya clan. After years of rigorous asceticism and meditation, he became enlightened under the Bodhi tree and became the Buddha—the Awakened One. He then dedicated his life to teaching the Eightfold Path and the Four Noble Truths to attain liberation. Shakyamuni Buddha stands for the potential for all beings to awaken. He embodies wisdom that leads to ultimate freedom, the victory over ignorance, and the tranquility of non-attachment. His presence is a timeless reminder of the transformative power of inner realization, compassion, and mindfulness.
