Golden Buddha Statue Holding Flower & Medicine Bowl 40"

Special Features:  The Buddha sits peacefully with a medicine bowl resting on his lap in his left hand.  The round bowl has a lid on it that looks like the blooming bud of a flower.  His right hand is placed by his knee with palm open in the abhaya mudra or fear not gesture.  In the tips of his fingers is a fully blossoming flower.    The serene expression on Lord Buddhas face is the highlight of the piece.  The focal point of Buddha statues is usually the face.  The Buddha's countenance captures the dharma of the Buddha.  The slight smile and radiates the Buddhas warmth and compassion. 

Care:  Regular dusting should keep the piece clean.  Over the years the golden polish will fade.  In order to keep the piece shiny you can use a cotton rag and some coconut oil to regularly clean the piece.  You can also use lemon or tamarind juice to wipe the piece down.  The acid from the lemon/tamarind removes any patina.
