Thai Buddha Amulet Pendant

This Pendant depicts the Buddha in Walking Pose (Lila). The images of the Walking Buddha are unique to the 13-14th centuries in Thailand.

After gaining enlightenment through meditation, Shakyamuni, the historic Buddha, devoted his life to teaching others the path to salvation. The Walking Buddha is a representation of him as a wandering teacher, with one hand raised in a symbolic gesture meaning fear not.

This image is elegant, tranquil yet moving and flowing. The undulating, flowing curves seen here are typical of the classic Thai Buddha style, which emphasized an elongated body with simple curves.

Imported from Thailand. Size is 3" long, cast in Brass, 3mm thick. Back has heart cut out. Due to the handmade nature of these pieces, each is slightly different.Available with natural patina or buffed. Comes in a cloth pouch.
