This Siddhartha Gautama real handmade statue was meticulously produced in our studio based in Kathmandu, Nepal. The statue is made entirely of oxidized copper and took months to carve out. Here, the Shakyamuni Buddha is depicted sitting atop a moon disc lotus seat, exuding serenity. He sits in a lotus posture with his left hand holding an alms bowl, indicating his life as a sage while performing the 'Bhumisparsa Mudra,' with his left hand.
It is a perfect souvenir for any devotee like yourself, can be used for Buddhist rituals, and is an excellent addition to your Altar.

Siddhartha Gautama was born as the crown prince of the mighty Shakya Kingdom and nurtured to be a king in line with his royal father's aspirations. However, when he was around 29 years old, he learned about people's tremendous pain in life. He abandoned his palace life and gave up his magnificent robes and gold to uncover the reasons for this anguish and the methods to alleviate it. After nearly six years of study, self-deprivation, and severe concentration, he achieved his aim. He had attained enlightenment (a Buddha). He claimed to have then proceeded to a deer park in Sarnath (Benares), India, on the outskirts of Varanasi.
