About the Item

An Amida Nyorai Sculpture In Gilt Carved Wood from the Edo Period. This is a superbly refined carved wooden figure of Amida Nyorai (Amitabha), the Buddha of Infinite Light, with fabulous gilding. Created in Japan during the Edo period, back in the mid 19th C. The gilding has a very nice patina and the face has a subtle gentle expression. The figure is depicted performing the welcoming mudra 来迎印 (raigô-in), symbolizing the greeting of a faithful devotee's soul at the time of death. The robes are gracefully draped over the figure, loosely hanging along the arms and gently parting at the chest. The Buddha's head features tight curls, crowned with an inlaid ushnisha, below which rests an inlaid byakugo (urna). The figure is set against a beautifully gilded, almond-shaped mandorla embellished with cloud motifs and the dharma chakra (wheel of the law) design. Amida Nyorai stands on a double-lotus throne, supported by a tiered galleried pedestal richly adorned. Period: Japan, Edo period (1600-1868). Date: 1850. Weight: About 6 Pounds (2.72 Kg.). Measurements: Height 50.4 cm, Width 17.3 cm, Depth 12.4 cm. (19.85 x 6.82 x 4.90 Inches). Height of Amida only 27.5 cm (10.85 Inches).
