Japanese Style Metal Buddha Statues
Buddhism is thought to have come to Japan from China through Korea in the mid-sixth century. Since then, Buddhist art has developed and influenced Japanese art.
There are many Buddha statues are made in India, Nepal, and Tibet. They are distinctly different from Japanese ones, especially facial features. Our Buddha statues are made in Japan.
Their face is rounder and facial expression is more feminine than Buddha statues you often see in South-east Asia or Tibet.
"Antique-looking finishing" Buddha statues give a modern and sophisticated twist by using chemicals to oxidize or corrode the surface of Buddha statues. With deliberately aged appearance, our eye-catching rustic Buddhas add character to your space.
We offer two antique colors; Bronze Matte and Bronze Gloss. They are made using a traditional coloring technique that has been passed down from generation to generation for almost 400 years in Takaoka.
The Amida Buddha Statue
The Amida Buddha Statue is one of the most revered savior figures in Japanese Buddhism, often seen in religious art and statues. Known as the "Blessing Buddha" or "Protection Buddha," its raised right hand represents fearlessness, while the lowered left hand symbolizes compassion. This statue embodies courage and protection from fear, delusion, and anger.
