Item Details
Description
Spanning 5.5 cm (2.17 inches) in height, 4.5 cm (1.77 inches) in width, and 3 cm (1.18 inches) in depth, this bronze or brass statuette represents Budai, a figure revered in Oriental Chinese culture, often identified with the Laughing Buddha. Originating from the 19th to 20th century, the idol is depicted in a seated position, with a contented smile, embodying abundance and good fortune. The relaxed posture, with a sack believed to contain treasures, plays a significant role in Feng Shui and is a symbol of prosperity. This piece is a charming representation of Chinese folkloric tradition.
