About this product
What you'll notice
- The Buddha sits in lotus posture on an ornate throne, robes draped across the left shoulder, hands resting in the lap in dhyana mudra, the gesture of meditation.
- The casting brings out the folds of the robe, the curls across the head, and the petals of the lotus base, all visible despite the small scale.
- The brass has a warm golden tone with darker antiqued recesses, so the detail catches the light when you turn it.
- It stands stable on its base and feels solid in the palm, made to sit on a surface rather than hang.
Brass, cast in India
It is cast from brass using a traditional lost-wax method, a technique practised across India for devotional metalwork since ancient times. The metal is poured into a detailed mould, then finished by hand to bring out the fine lines. Brass is valued for its warmth, its ability to hold intricate detail, and the way it ages gracefully over time.
The iconography
The pose is Shakyamuni Buddha in seated meditation, a form central to Buddhist practice and art. The dhyana mudra, both hands resting open in the lap, right over left, represents the stillness of deep contemplation. The lotus throne beneath symbolises purity and rising above difficulty, a motif that appears in Buddhist, Hindu and Jain sculpture. This rendering follows classical Indian iconography, with the serene expression and the ushnisha, the cranial protuberance that signifies wisdom.
Size and placement
The statue measures 34 mm tall, about the height of a matchbox, and weighs 17 g. It suits a small shrine, a meditation corner, a bookshelf between volumes, or a desk where you want a quiet focal point. The base is flat and stable, so it sits securely without tipping.
Care and patina
Brass develops a natural patina over months and years, darkening in the recesses and warming in tone. To keep the golden finish bright, wipe it occasionally with a soft cloth and a little lemon juice or brass polish, then rinse and dry. To let it age, simply dust it and leave it to settle into a deeper colour. Keep it indoors and dry, as moisture speeds tarnishing.
