A Chinese terracotta Buddha head sculpture from the 18th century or earlier, with custom stand. Created in China, this 18th century (or earlier) sculpture depicts a Buddha head topped with the traditional Ushnisha, made of snail shell curls. Carved to represent the Buddha's wisdom, the head is accented with the urna, the circular dot placed on his forehead, symbolizing his vision into the divine world.
Showcasing a calm expression, his eyes semi-closed revealing his meditative state, he presents the elongated ears reminding us of his past as prince Siddhartha Gautama. Finished with soft colors complimenting each other perfectly, this Chinese terracotta Buddha head sculpture will come with a stand that will be included at purchase. An excellent decorative addition to any home! Shop our entire collection of antique decorative objects & sculptures!
