Laughing Buddha, jade, early 1900s
Jade sculpture depicting the laughing Buddha, dating back to the early 1900s.
The work depicts a figure seated in a relaxed position, with a pronounced bare belly, symbolizing prosperity, abundance, and happiness. The face is characterized by a serene and smiling expression, with half-closed eyes and soft features that convey calm and benevolence. The hands rest on the knees, while the details of the face, fingers, and drapery of the robe are finely sculpted.
The jade, in an intense green hue with striking veins and natural shades, is smoothed and polished with great care, enhancing the chromatic depth and compactness of the material. The surface has a patina consistent with the period, which contributes to the charm of the object.
A decorative work with a strong visual and symbolic impact, ideal for collectors of Oriental art or as a valuable piece of furniture.
Dimensions: 20 x 26 x 22 cm.
