Impressive Mandalay statue in bronze, executed with original lacquer layers, gesso base, and hand-applied gold leaf. This is a heavy, tangible, and visibly lived-in Buddha statue that immediately radiates calm and authority. The surface shows honest wear from devotional use, without cleaning or cosmetic interventions.
The statue retains its original ritual seal at the bottom, confirming that it was crafted and used according to traditional Burmese consecration practices. The combination of size, weight, and material makes this an exceptional object within the Mandalay tradition, where similar sculptures are usually executed in wood or stucco.
A powerful, authentic temple statue for those seeking not a decorative piece, but an object with presence, history, and lasting value.
