Laughing Buddha Statue Hands Up Whitewash 40cm

Soft whitewash settles into carved grain, while warm suar wood glows beneath. Standing 40 cm tall, this joyful figure brings a quiet sense of harmony and balance to any room. Hand-carved in Indonesia with time-honoured techniques, it feels grounded and serene. 🌿 Arms lifted with open palms, the expression is bright and tender—smiling mouth, gently closed eyes. Flowing sleeves and a tied sash frame the rounded form, while a beaded necklace with a round medallion rests at the chest. The base evokes a draped cushion, with smooth surfaces meeting subtle, textured folds. 🙏 Known in parts of East Asia as Budai—a figure cherished for themes of contentment and goodwill—this sculpture is offered with cultural respect. The whitewashed robe contrasts the wood’s natural warmth, and each piece carries its own small variations, a quiet signature of the artisan’s hand. Place it where you welcome light and calm. A thoughtful gift for a new home or a mindful corner. 🕯️🤍
