Hand Carved Buddha Statue – 30cm Hand Down

The hand lowered to the earth is the gesture of fearlessness, grounding truth and strength.

This 30cm Buddha statue is carved entirely by hand from suar wood, shaped with devotion using the same tools and methods passed down through generations of Buddhist artisans. The smooth finish, calm expression, and careful detailing reflect weeks of patient work, making each piece unique.

The Buddha is depicted in the Bhumisparsha Mudra, known as the Earth-Touching Gesture or “Hand Down.” With the right hand extended to the earth, the Buddha calls the ground itself to witness his enlightenment. This mudra represents unshakable resolve, truth, and the victory over illusion.

In Buddhist folklore, statues in this mudra are said to root the space in stability and protection. The gesture is a reminder of the Buddha’s triumph over temptation beneath the Bodhi tree, anchoring strength, clarity, and courage in daily life. Placing such a statue in your home or altar is believed to invite resilience and spiritual grounding.

Every carving from Buddha-Buddha carries subtle variations of the artisan’s hand and the wood’s natural grain, making each statue a one-of-a-kind presence that embodies both tradition and spirit.
