Description from the seller

An exceptionally devotional object of refined craftsmanship: a standing Buddha figure, sculpted from clear glass, elevated on a layered lotus-shaped stupa base.

The figure stands in abhaya mudra (protective gesture) and is dressed in a flowing monastic robe with finely worked pleats.

The base is built as a bulging lotus orb — a classical Buddhist symbol of purity and enlightenment — . The connecting ring between figure and base bears Chinese characters (高僧廣…), referring to a revered monk or saint.

The whole rests on a lobed foot in lotus form, also executed in glass.

The stupa is in good used condition with signs of aging. (See photos)
Very finely detailed.
Careful packing and insured shipping.

This object can be shipped together with other objects of mine in this auction so that you only pay shipping costs once.
