This exquisite Cambodian Buddha statue is hand-carved from rich, red wood and depicts the Buddha seated in the Vitarka Mudra, a gesture symbolizing the teaching and transmission of wisdom. The Vitarka Mudra, performed by joining the thumb and index finger in a circle, represents the wheel of teaching, indicating a discourse or explanation of the Dharma. This serene depiction captures the Buddha's tranquil expression, radiating peace and enlightenment, making it a spiritually uplifting addition to any space.

The Buddha's seated posture, with crossed legs in a traditional meditative position, symbolizes groundedness and stability on the path to spiritual awakening. His peaceful gaze and relaxed posture encourage reflection and mindfulness, fostering a sense of inner calm. The intricately detailed carving highlights the masterful Cambodian craftsmanship, particularly in the contours of the face and the carefully depicted folds of the robes.

Ideal for any home altar, meditation space, or as a focal point in your living room, this Buddha statue brings a calming and spiritual presence to its surroundings. It serves as a reminder of the Buddha's teachings on compassion, wisdom, and the path to enlightenment, inspiring peace and harmony in one's life.

I always say to our customers; The sculpture chooses you, you do not choose the sculpture.
You just know when you find the right piece to bring into your home and into your heart. - Kyle Tortora, Founder of Lotus Sculpture

The use of a wood polish will keep the wood looking fresh and the colors vibrant.

Wood statues are easy to take care of as they just need some annual upkeep to keep them looking as they did when they were first carved. All the wood used by Lotus Sculpure's artists is dried out for months. Moisture causes cracks in the sculpture as the wood contracts and expands in different temperatures. Our wood has little to no moisture in it assuring that the sculpture is not going to crack in its journey into different climates. Here are some simple tips to keep your statue in good condition:

Dust the statue as needed to prevent dirt build up
To make the statue shine use a natural wood cleaner and a cotton cloth to buff the sculpture

We prefer Old English to polish and buff our statues. The use of a wood polish like Old English will keep the wood looking fresh and keep the colors looking vibrant. For natural wood and painted wooden statues we recommend Old English for lighter woods. For darker wood statues we recommend Old English for darker woods. Lotus Sculpture cleans and polishes each wooden statue prior to shipping them to the customer.

We recommend keeping wooden statues in an indoor environment. Wood statues can go outside however, they will wear more quickly and develop an antique appearance. If you would like to put a wood statue from Lotus Sculpture outside and keep the same appearance of the sculpture we would recommend first coating the statue with a couple of layers of sealant or polyurethane. We would then recommend placing the statue in a partially covered area. The more exposure to the elements the more the statue will wear over time.
