This gorgeous statuette by Balinese artisan Wayan Rendah shows Buddha in a deep state of meditation, holding a water bowl delicately in his left hand while sitting on a lotus flower. Hand crafted from native suar wood, the intricate detailing of Buddha's face and clothing is truly exquisite. The pose in which Buddha holds his right hand is traditionally known as the vitarka mudra, or "The Gesture of Debate."

I bought this for my lovely granddaughter and her husband upon the arrival of their first child. It is so impressive as a new family begins and all of lifes adventures await the three of them! They absolutely loved it as did I for the exquisite carving and depiction of a new family ready for the future! It could not be more perfect!

This is a wonderful piece. It can stand vertical or lay as a bowl. My wife uses it to put small flowers across it. Very cleanly carved. Wonderful
