In our thoughts, the name Gautama Buddha inspires feelings of tranquilly and contenment. This beautiful brass inlaid statue of Buddha preaching his Dharma radiates warmth and serenity to everybody who looks at it. He's reclining in a complete yogic pose called 'Padmasana,' or lotus position, with his right hand up in the vitarka mudra, which represents the flow of energy and knowledge. His left hand was observed lying in the dhyana mudra in his lap, while his other hand held an alms bowl. He's dressed in a robe with intricate patterns and a strange shawl slung over his shoulder.
The main attraction of the sculpture is undoubtedly the inlay work. Blue, red and turquoise gemstones have been used to create beautiful floral patterns on what can be assumed as her upper garment and monastic robe. The robe is also adorned in filigree designs. The enlightened one looks serene as a stem of flower comes from his index finger. The sculpture will be a great addition to your home décor and collectables.
