A Wonderful Gift

Product picture

Mr. Rendah has got to be my favorite carver of Buddha statues. I've had so many different ones over the years, but I always go back to his unique work. There is something organic about hand carved wooden Buddhas, and no one does it better than Mr. Rendah. I gifted this "Sitting Buddha" to a friend, and she loved it.

Such wisdom and peacefulness from this work!

Buddha Sculpture

The teaching of the Buddha have risen from their humble beginnings in Northern India over 26 Centuries ago to become one of the world’s great religions. Along with the rise of teaching serenity and oneness with the universe, the statue of the Buddha has been carved from many materials by artists who regard the carving process itself as a religious experience. Take Indonesia’s Nyoman Karsa for example. A wood carver of humble origin, he learned his art from his father and senior artists in his village. He works in local exotic woods such as ebony and hibiscus, creating works which embody the spirit of their subject. He is another of NOVICA’s local artisans preserving their craft for future generations. Each Buddha sculpture embodies its creator’s personalized vision of the master and will bring a sense of peace and well being to any room it graces.
