The Buddha sits in a meditation posture on a high, stepped throne with red lacquer accents and finely crafted decorative bands.\n\n\u003cp\u003e\n\nBehind the statue rises the multi-headed Muchalinda-Naga, the mythical snake king who, according to Buddhist tradition, protected the meditating Buddha from storms and negativity. As a result, a Naga Buddha symbolizes protection, inner peace, spiritual strength, and stability during difficult periods.\n\n\u003cp\u003e\n\nThe statue displays beautiful traces of age and devotional wear, with weathered gold lacquer, dark oxidation, and a warm, lived-in appearance that perfectly aligns with traditional Thai temple art from the first half of the 20th century. The combination of the powerful silhouette, the high throne, and the protective Naga makes this a particularly decorative and spiritual object for both the interior and a meditation or altar space. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"color:#8a6d3b; font-size: 20px; margin-top:40px; margin-bottom: 15px; font-weight: normal;\"\u003e\nProduct specifications\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%; border-collapse:collapse; font-size: 15px;\"\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px; border-bottom:1px solid #eee; width: 30%;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eObject\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px; border-bottom:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eNaga Buddha statue (Muchalinda Buddha)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px; border-bottom:1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px; border-bottom:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eThailand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px; border-bottom:1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePeriod\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px; border-bottom:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eApprox. 1920–1950\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px; border-bottom:1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px; border-bottom:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eBronze \/ brass with gold lacquer and red pigment residue\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px; border-bottom:1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpiritual meaning\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px; border-bottom:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eProtection, peace, meditation and spiritual power\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px; border-bottom:1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px; border-bottom:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eH 19 x W 10.8 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px; border-bottom:1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px; border-bottom:1px solid #eee;\"\u003e1 kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px; border-bottom:1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px; border-bottom:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eAuthentic vintage condition with characterful wear, patina, and signs of age consistent with age and use.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"1stbuddha","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57445259903307,"sku":"594","price":272.25,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1012\/6170\/5547\/files\/antieke-thaise-naga-boeddha-verguld-muchalinda-tempelbeeld.jpg?v=1779811432"},{"product_id":"indiase-ratnasambhava-boeddha-19e-eeuw-pala-revival-15-cm","title":"Indian Ratnasambhava Buddha – 19th Century – Pala Revival – 15 cm","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe architectural setting is integral to this 19th-century Indian bronze.
