Lapis Buddha with Bodhi Leaf

A beautiful hand-carved Indian Buddha sculpture in natural lapis lazuli. Buddha is seated dhyana asana, with softly modeled smiling facial features conveying calm introspection and spiritual depth. The deep celestial blue of the lapis is enlivened by natural pyrite inclusions, creating a subtle constellation-like shimmer across the surface. The robes are elegantly defined with flowing lines, enhancing the sense of quiet movement and grace. The reverse features a stylized leaf, its gently curving silhouette and incised veins adding a naturalistic and symbolic dimension—evoking enlightenment beneath the Bodhi tree. This sculptural detail not only frames the Buddha but also reinforces themes of growth, awakening, and harmony with nature. Finely carved and polished, very smooth finish.
