The sculpture depicts the Buddhist Triad (Western Paradise), featuring Amitabha Buddha seated in the center on a cloud-like pedestal, flanked by the Bodhisattvas Avalokiteshvara (Guanyin) and Mahasthamaprapta standing below.

The piece is a masterpiece of detailed carving, integrating elegant figures with elements of nature, including twisted pine trees, auspicious clouds, and a rugged rockery base. The carvers have captured the serene facial expressions and the graceful, flowing robes of the deities with incredible precision.

Measuring 9.1 inches tall, this slender sculpture is an ideal size for a meditation altar, a bookshelf, a display case, or as a beautiful Feng Shui accent. The wood features a warm, honey-brown glow with a polished finish. A timeless piece of Buddhist art that brings a sense of peace and spiritual elegance to any space. See less
