Antique Chinese Marble Buddha Statue

Shakyamuni

Head of Buddha

Circa: Late Ming Dynasty. 17th-18th century
H. 8 in.(20cm), W. 5 in.(12.7cm), D. 6 in.(15cm)
Condition: chips, erosion, o.a. good!
This Ming era Buddha communicates an innate peacefulness, a deep reflection of the moment when the historical Buddha Shakyamuni was enlightened. Carved of antique marble this Buddha conveys classical Chinese features a rounded face and chin, full lips and graceful eyes nearly closed. The high detail on the snail-shell hair curls attest to its providence. The raw stone on the back of the head provides compelling contrast to the considerable detail on the rest of the statue. Which suggested that it may have been chiseled from a larger stele. There are some chips and erosion but otherwise this is in very good condition. (SD)
