About Gautama Buddha
Siddhartha Gautama, widely known as the Buddha, is revered as the founder of Buddhism. He rediscovered the ancient path to liberation from suffering (duḥkha) and the cycle of birth and rebirth, leading to the attainment of Nirvana. For approximately 45 years, he shared his profound teachings, gathering a vast following of both monastic and lay practitioners. His wisdom continues to inspire spiritual seekers around the world.
Antique Patina Finish
This brass Buddha statue features an antique patina finish, carefully crafted to replicate the appearance of aged artifacts. While it is not an antique piece, the skilled artisans have meticulously applied a unique aging technique to give it a timeless, historical aesthetic. The carefully curated patina enhances the depth and character of the statue, embodying the passage of time and tradition.
Lost-Wax Casting Method
This Buddha statue is crafted using the lost-wax casting process, an ancient technique known for producing intricate metal sculptures. The process begins with a finely detailed wax model, which is coated with multiple layers of ceramic to form a durable mold. Once the mold is cured, the wax is melted away, leaving a hollow cavity that is then filled with molten brass. Once the metal solidifies, the ceramic shell is carefully removed, revealing a beautifully detailed sculpture, true to the original design.
