Serene Ascetic, Large Finely Carved Marble Buddha

Details

Carved from a single, heavy block of solid white marble. This piece captures the classic iconography of the Buddha in a state of deep meditation, featuring the traditional ushnisha (the cranial bump representing spiritual wisdom) and a countenance of profound tranquility. The cool, matte texture of the marble offers a tactile "wabi-sabi" feel, with subtle natural veining that ensures no two pieces are exactly alike. Due to the artisanal, hand-carved nature of the stone, the base features an authentic, slightly uneven character. To ensure a stable and protective display on fine furniture, we have professionally added industrial felt pads to the underside. Its substantial weight and clean, monochromatic palette make it a versatile anchor for high-end Organic Modern or Zen-inspired interiors. Display Caution: This is a heavy, solid stone artifact. Please use care when placing on glass or delicate wood surfaces. (Requires White Glove Delivery) **Please bear in mind that colors of products shown may vary slightly from their original color due to monitor display settings or photography studio.
