Kagyu Karmapa Buddhist Sculpture | Handcrafted Oxidized Copper Statue | Spiritual Dharma Art
The exquisitely sculpted statue of the venerated head of the Kagyu tradition of Tibetan Buddhism is known as the Karmapa. Standing 7.7 inches tall, this statue depicts the calm and sage demeanor of the Karmapa, who is revered in the tradition of Tibetan Buddhist teachers as the epitome of wisdom and compassion.
With one hand holding a bell and an upright vajra in his other hand—a symbol of spiritual strength and indestructibility—he holds it resting on his lap. The Karmapa's crown, which symbolizes his power as the bearer of his lineage, is an important component. This statue is a powerful work of spiritual art because of the dexterity with which the artist has crafted the crown, robes, and facial expressions.
