This unique statue is just as it appears on line. The workmanship is of very high quality. It arrived within two weeks from time of purchase. I am very pleased with my purchase.

I have been intrigued by the crying Buddha for years. I sometimes struggle with depression and the crying Buddha makes me feel less alone. I bought both the small and larger carving because I didn't know how they would "feel". I want to offer comfort to the Buddha and I didn't know what that would look like. Would I want to hold it in my hand or would I want to stroke his back? Turns out, I want to do both. I brought the smaller carving to work and I have the larger statue on my grandmother's desk. I rub the larger statue's back every time I walk into my living room. I offer the Buddha my comfort and he offers me his. I hold the smaller carving in my hand when I'm at work. The smooth contours of the carving beg to be touched. I'm so happy with both of them. They are beautiful.

I ordered this statue for my daughter's birthday, taking the chance that it would feel "special enough" for this time in her life. I wanted to give her something that was symbolic of her beauty and love for yoga. Something that would motivate her to continue her journey into health and mindfulness. It far exceeded my expectations! I was thrilled to give her this amazing handcrafted gift and she wept when she held it!
