8 Inch Gold Plated Healing Buddha Statue on Lotus Base - Handcrafted in Patan, Nepal
This exquisite 8-inch Healing Buddha statue, elegantly plated in gold on a lotus base, is a true testament to the artisanal mastery of a third-generation sculptor from Patan, Nepal.
Seated serenely on a lotus pedestal, the Healing Buddha cradles a vase in his left hand, emanating an aura of tranquility. The intricate detailing of this statue amplifies its inherent beauty.
Our journey led us to this remarkable Buddha statue, partially gilded to perfection by a talented sculptor in Patan. In the face of reduced demand for handmade statues and the competitive onslaught of machine-made alternatives, the artist faced challenges in selling his creations promptly, resulting in a collection of over 50 statues. In our mission to uplift the lives of artisans and support their sustainable livelihoods, we acquired this statue and are delighted to present it to you.

Please exercise caution when cleaning gold statues:
-
For gold-painted surfaces, avoid using cold water or touching the paint directly. Gently dust the surface with a soft cotton cloth.
-
Refrain from using abrasive scrubbing cloths, steel wool, or metal-bristled brushes, as they can leave unsightly scratches on the statue's surface.
-
Minimize direct contact with gold statues to prevent the transfer of oils from your skin, which can accelerate tarnishing and diminish the longevity of your gold objects.
