Handmade Oxidized Copper Statue of Historical Gautama Buddha
This Handmade Oxidized Copper Statue of Historical Gautama Buddha measures 10.6 inches (27 cm) in height and 7.3 inches (18.5 cm) at the base, with a weight of 2.62 kg. Expertly crafted from oxidized copper and finished with a layer of silver plating, the statue reflects the refined skills of Nepali artisans. Its aged, dignified appearance and meticulous detailing make it a striking addition to meditation spaces, home altars, or spiritual interiors—inviting a sense of calm, mindfulness, and timeless beauty into any environment.
Shakyamuni Buddha sits serenely in meditation, his half-closed eyes glowing with calm wisdom and awakened clarity. His right hand touches the earth in the bhūmisparśa mudrā, summoning the Earth to witness his enlightenment. In his left hand, a delicate alms bowl symbolizes humility and renunciation. Crowning his head is the ushnisha, a mark of supreme wisdom, while his snail-coiled hair playfully recalls the legend of snails shielding him from the sun during long meditations. Resting on a moon disc lotus in vajra posture, he represents purity, steadiness, and peaceful focus—an artistic tribute to the timeless Buddha.

Gautama Buddha, also known as Shakyamuni, began his journey as Siddhartha Gautama, a prince from ancient Nepal who courageously left behind royal luxury in search of deeper truth. Beneath the Bodhi tree, he attained enlightenment and unveiled a path to end suffering. At the heart of his teachings lie the Four Noble Truths: acknowledging suffering, understanding its origin, realizing its cessation, and following the path to liberation. This journey—the Noble Eightfold Path—guides us through right view, intention, speech, action, livelihood, effort, mindfulness, and concentration, leading to ethical living, mental clarity, and the ultimate freedom known as nirvanna.
