Antique Khmer Abhaya Buddha in Midnight Colour - 65cm

This elegant antique Khmer-style standing Buddha statue, hand-carved from reclaimed teak wood, evokes the profound calm and reassuring presence of Cambodian Buddhist tradition.
 

Standing approximately 65 cm tall and 16 cm wide on a simple dark pedestal base, the figure is topped with a distinctive ushnisha topknot, signifying enlightenment and boundless wisdom.
 

The face, with its serene closed eyes, gentle smile, and elongated earlobes symbolizing renunciation, imparts an enduring sense of inner peace.

The right hand is raised in the abhaya mudra, the gesture of fearlessness and blessing, complemented by the left hand resting at the side for grounded equilibrium.
 

The body is clad in flowing robes accented with intricate gold detailing, primarily in deep indigo tones that have developed a subtle patina of blue, metallic gold, and natural wood grains, underscoring its historical depth and artisanal finesse.

Hailing from Cambodia's storied Khmer heritage, this singular artwork acts as a contemplative anchor or sophisticated accent, cultivating serenity and mindfulness in any setting.
