19th Century Stone Young Buddha Shakyamuni

A 19th century antique stone Buddha, weighing 23 lbs, depicting a young Shakyamuni. His full, rounded face—typical of the Tang Dynasty style—bears downcast eyes beneath high-arched brows, flanked by elongated pendulous earlobes. The hair is neatly arranged in a chignon atop his head, exuding balance and dignity. His right hand is raised in the abhaya mudra, a gesture of reassurance and fearlessness, while his left hand holds a scepter, symbolizing a smooth journey. A long, flowing robe drapes gracefully over his form, cascading in soft folds around the tiered throne on which he sits. The facial expression radiates profound peace and kindness. Statue is with a beautiful aged patina, while the back reveals its origin as part of a mountain cave, lending it both authenticity and historical depth.
