Large and beautiful Porcelain Temple Buddha, vibrant rich colors and a rare find. You will not find any like this in North America, we have only two available. The Buddha measures about 23 inches tall. This Large Porcelain Buddha, weighing almost 30 lbs., is so rare that we had to commission the making of a limited number of these excellent reproductions from the same Porcelain Shop that made these originally over 75 years ago. Our search started with a WWII vintage photograph sent to us from a customer, who served in China during the war, asking us to locate one for him. Unable to locate even one we commissioned a dozen to be made by the same shop that made the original. Half of those have already been sold.
Gautama Buddha was born in 563 b.c. in northeast India. The Buddha was the son of the King of the Sakyas. Suddhodana, who ruled at Kapilavastu, on the border of Nepal. His mother was Queen Maya. He was named Siddhartha. He lived amidst the pleasures of palace life and at age 16 he was married to Princess Yasodhara. They had a son named Rahula. After seeing a decrepid old man, an invalid, and an ascetic beggar, he learned of suffering and decided to embrace asceticism. Soon afterwards, at age 29, Siddhartha left the palace and his family and went to a hermitage where he became the monk Gautama, or, as he is still called, Sakyamuni (The ascetic of the Sakyas). One day, meditating under a sacred figtree, he attained perfect illumination (Bodhi). He had become a Buddha. From there on he traveled and preached for 44 years what was to become one of the main religions of the world. He died at Kusinagara at age 80.
