About the Item

This is a very large and very old Antique Buddha that is nearly life size and weighs 72 lbs. I had aquired this during the 90s when I provided antique restoration to many of the antique stores in the Dallas. The carving is absolutely amazing and there are no missing or broken pieces, no loose pieces as well. The only non original paint I can see someone added, is a tiny bit of gold paint on the bottom of his left foot. The only thing I have ever seen with gesso, gold leaf and carving of this quality would be in a museum. This has been appraised and inspected by a reputable Asian antiques dealer and this piece is a reproduction of the Song Dynasty 1200 A.D. and was most likely produced in the late 1700, to mid 1800s based on the condition of the wood. This is truly a 1 of a kind find and I only held onto it because of my appreciation for original wood carvings. the price is negotiable and I honestly wish this would go to someone with an appreciation for Buddism.
