This sculpture depicts the 8th Karmapa, the spiritual head of the Karma Kagyu lineage of Tibetan Buddhism. The 8th Karmapa, Mikyo Dorje (1507-1554), was one of the most influential masters of the lineage and a prolific scholar known for his teachings on Mahamudra and the nature of mind. The Karmapa lineage is regarded as the first consciously reincarnating lineage in Tibetan Buddhism, representing an unbroken transmission of realization and teaching that spans centuries.

The Karmapa is shown seated in meditation with his hands held at the heart in Teaching Mudra (Vitarka Mudra). This gesture symbolizes the transmission of knowledge, dialogue, and the sharing of insight between teacher and student. He is flanked by ornate floral staffs, which add balance and vertical presence while symbolizing refinement, awakening, and the blossoming of wisdom. His flowing robes and composed expression convey clarity, authority, and inner realization. The figure rests upon a carved sacred scroll base, representing the preservation of Buddhist teachings, scripture, and lineage transmission.

Cast in dark copper, this statue features finely detailed, flowing garments with etched patterns throughout the robes and base. The warm copper tone enhances the sculptural depth and highlights the craftsmanship in the facial features, hand gesture, and decorative elements. This piece is well suited for personal altars, meditation rooms, or Tibetan Buddhist devotional displays.

This beautiful sculpture made of rich copper and a silver inlay is hand crafted by the very talented artists of the beautiful Himalayan Kingdom of Nepal!

"The statue chooses you.

You know when you find the right piece to bring into your home and into your heart."

~ Kyle Tortora, Founder, Lotus Sculpture ~

Copper statues from Nepali do not need much maintenance. The best way to maintain the statue is to simply dust the piece periodically to keep any dirt from accumulating. They are meant solely for indoor use.

If you would like the piece to shine use a cotton cloth with some coconut oil or other natural oil to wipe down the copper statue. Pay special attention to not go over any painted area of the sculpture.

If you are really interested in making the statue shine you can use some natural oil, like coconut oil or olive oil, and a cotton rag to wipe down the metal portions of the piece. You can use a toothbrush as well to get into the small crevices of the statue. Please pay special attention to not use any oil on any painted surface of the sculpture, such as the face. This will damage the paint and possibly recolor the painted area. Simply use a cotton cloth to dust the face if the face requires attention. Make sure the surface that touches the face does not have any oils present on it. If there are natural stones on the sculpture use caution while going over the stones as they can become dislodged while handling the sculpture.
