Buddha Statue 2m Turquoise and Stone Teaching Pose

A tall Buddha statue with a turquoise and stone-toned finish, made to hold attention through scale, stillness and quiet detail. The teaching pose gives the figure a composed, contemplative presence, while the fibre cement body keeps the material honest and substantial.

What you'll notice in the form

• The teaching pose gives the statue a clear iconographic focus, with the hands presented as part of the figure’s meaning rather than as decoration alone.
• The turquoise colouring brings a softened, weathered character, especially against the stone-like surface tones.
• The large format gives the piece a strong visual centre, suited to a setting where it can stand with space around it.
• The fibre cement material suits the grounded look of the piece, with a solid, architectural feel rather than a glossy finish.

Fibre cement with a turquoise stone look

The statue is made from fibre cement, a material often chosen for large sculptural forms because it gives a firm, mineral-like presence without pretending to be carved stone. The finish is turquoise and stone-toned, giving the figure a time-softened appearance that feels calm rather than bright.

The teaching pose in context

In Buddhist iconography, a teaching pose refers to the Buddha shown in the act of sharing the Dharma, the body of teachings associated with the path to awakening. It is a respectful and recognisable form, more formal than the rounded, smiling Budai figure often called a ‘laughing Buddha’. Here, the emphasis is on stillness, attention and the gesture itself.

Placement and care

Place it where the full height and front-facing form can be seen clearly, with enough room for the silhouette to read. Dust with a soft dry cloth and avoid abrasive cleaners, which may mark the coloured surface. Outdoor suitability is not specified, so a protected position is the more careful choice.

Common questions

Is it carved from stone?
No. The verified material is fibre cement, with a turquoise and stone-toned finish.

Is this the laughing Buddha?
No. This statue is described as a Buddha in teaching pose, which is a different iconographic form from the rounded Budai figure often called the laughing Buddha.

Can it be kept outside?
Outdoor suitability is not confirmed in the verified facts. A sheltered, protected position is the safest choice for preserving the finish.
