Sculpture of praying Buddha in teak wood - H25cm XS

This striking 1960s hand-carved wooden sculpture depicts the Weeping Buddha in a contemplative pose, blending themes of prayer, sorrow, and inner strength. Its fluid, abstract form hints at yoga and wrestling, symbolizing spiritual resilience.

Legend tells of a warrior who unknowingly killed his own son in battle, weeping in grief—a story that gives this figure its profound emotional power. Tradition holds that the Weeping Buddha absorbs the sorrows of those who gaze upon him, offering peace and inner strength.

With smooth curves and carefully rendered details, this large sculpture is both a decorative masterpiece and a symbol of resilience, introspection, and the healing power of acceptance—perfect for collectors seeking art with deep meaning.
