small buddha

Eka presents this appealing statuette of a small Balinese-style Buddha in prayer. Clad in red, Buddha's hands are clasped in the Dhyana mudra, a gesture of meditation and concentration. The statuette is carved by hand from native suar wood.

Let Buddha's wisdom enter your home with a fantastic sculpture crafted by Tulsi Dass, an expert in traditional Indian metalwork. After finishing the brass sculpture, the artisan adds a colourful touch using little beads and resin accents, all in vibrant hues reminiscent of those stunning Indian palaces. The piece also comes polished for a lustrous and breathtaking look.

Nyoman Ariawan crafts this charm bracelet inspired by Borobudur, the largest Buddhist temple in the world. A stupa is a dome-shaped structure used as a Buddhist shrine, which can be found in numerous countries throughout East Asia. Borobudur houses 72 Buddha statues which sit inside of bell-like stupas, with decorative diamond-shaped openings that reveal the statues inside. A tiny ringing charm representing one of these stupas dangles from this bracelet, along with a small image of Buddha.

Caught in clouds of moonlight, enhanced amethyst is dazzling. Zayd Makarim designs these exquisite earrings, suspending them from a globe and a smaller violet gem. Makarim takes his inspiration for the spiral motifs from the tight curls on Buddha images.

Images of Buddha both large and small grace the cover of this handmade journal from India's Asha Prabha. The handmade paper journal features 48 unlined pages, perfect for recording your ideas, dream, or sketches. The artisan binds the journal with khaki-colored cotton and adds a cotton cord to secure it.

Arising from emerald lily pads, a small purple lotus is dazzling. Rudy Adnyana turns his lens toward a calm lake in Bali, photographing the favorite flower of Buddha.

"I see a lack of compassion between fellow beings these days and few people who bring about peace in society. The process to make peace for the common good in society and the world starts with the self, doing small things such as meditating and practicing mindfulness to solve problems for the sake of both peace and the world," master artisan Wayan Rendah says.

"My hope is that everyone can respect one other and respect the differences that exist to avoid hostility and injustice in life and society.

"Buddha's teachings promote inner peace and unity for achieving enlightenment, and Buddha has motivated many to transform their life choices over thousands of years, spanning periods of chaos and stability."

The Buddhist concept of a peaceful life inspires this hand-carved hibiscus wood sculpture depicting the serene face of Buddha, blessing all those within his presence. At the centre of a world suspended in equilibrium, Buddha seeks discipline and selflessness among the inhabitants of the Earth.

Said to be the tree under which Buddha attained enlightenment, the Bodhi Tree has great spiritual significance for Buddhists everywhere. The talented artisans Thatsanee and Ramphan from Thailand depict the Bodhi Tree beautifully on this petite green celadon bud vase. The vase features the crackled finish that is typical of celadon ceramics.
