About the Item
This antique bronze Buddha statue from the Ava period of Burma (now known as Myanmar) dates back to the 17th century. With a height of 32.5 cm, it showcases the exquisite craftsmanship characteristic of that era, reflecting the rich artistic heritage of Burmese culture.
The statue features traces of the original 24 karat gilding, emphasizing its historical significance and the detailed artistry that went into its creation. The Ava period was renowned for its distinctive style, which often incorporated elements from both indigenous and neighboring influences, resulting in a unique synthesis of artistic expressions.
The seated Buddha adopts the Bhumisparsha mudra, symbolizing enlightenment and the moment of the Buddha's awakening. This gesture serves as a reminder of the Buddha's journey to gain insight and understanding, embodying the tranquility and wisdom that Buddhism promotes.
Burma’s history is deeply intertwined with Buddhism, as it became a major center of the religion in Southeast Asia, influencing art, architecture, and culture over centuries. This antique Buddha statue is not merely a decorative piece; it carries a legacy that reflects the spiritual and historical journey of the region, making it a remarkable addition to any collection.
