Amitabha Buddha Statue in Brass – Multiple Sizes

Description

The amitabha buddha statue in brass arrives already settled, its weight familiar in the hand, its surface warm from the casting. Here is presence before thought.

Amitabha, the Buddha of Boundless Light, holds a place of deep reverence across the Mahayana traditions of China, Tibet, and Nepal. This statue is produced by artisans working within a continuous lineage of lost-wax casting, a technique refined over centuries in the workshops of the Kathmandu Valley and the foundries of Hebei province. Brass, an alloy of copper and zinc, was chosen over lesser metals for its stability, its resonance when struck, and its capacity to hold fine detail without distortion across generations.

The statue is presented in multiple sizes, each cast in a single pour to ensure structural integrity with no seams at vulnerable points. The finish is hand-worked: recessed areas receive a darkening patina to emphasize the modeled folds of the robe, while the face, hands, and lotus throne are brought to a warm satin polish. The mudra, or hand gesture, is the dhyana mudra: hands resting in the lap, palms upward, right over left, indicating meditative absorption. Weight varies by size; the medium piece runs approximately 800 grams.
