Buddha Statue Hand Carved 40cm Vintage Orange Teaching

• The seated form has a centred, ceremonial quality, made to be seen from the front and given a little space around it.
• The teaching theme speaks to the Buddha as a guide and source of insight, a respectful symbol of wisdom in Buddhist art.
• The warm orange surface softens the form, giving it the look of an object that has already lived in a home.
• Its weight gives it a grounded feel, suited to a stable piece of furniture rather than a delicate display ledge.
• The carved surface invites close looking, with small variations that belong to the hand-finished process.

This statue is hand carved from suar wood in Indonesia, then painted and sun-aged for a vintage finish. Suar wood is valued for its strength and expressive grain, so each figure carries its own natural markings beneath the colour.

Because the work is artisanal, small differences in carving, tone and surface are part of the character. The piece you receive will not be a perfectly identical factory copy.

Place it indoors on a level, dry surface where it can stand securely. A console table, meditation corner, bookcase or quiet hallway all suit its upright presence.

Dust gently with a soft, dry cloth. Keep it away from prolonged damp, direct water and harsh cleaning products, as painted wood can mark or dull over time.

Buddha statues are used across Buddhist cultures as reminders of awakened awareness, discipline and compassion. A teaching posture refers to the sharing of insight, often associated with the Buddha’s role as a teacher rather than as a decorative motif alone. In a home, a statue like this can be placed with respect as a contemplative object, a visual anchor for meditation, or simply as a calm piece of carved art. The Balinese craft context gives this version its warm, hand-finished character, shaped through wood, colour and surface ageing.

Height: 40 cm. Weight: 5000 g. Made from suar wood with an orange vintage painted finish. Origin: Indonesia.

This is a considered gift for someone who values carved wood, Buddhist iconography or a slower, more grounded home. Its scale and hand-finished surface make it feel substantial, personal and lasting.
