Seated Buddha Statue (Wooden)

This appears to be a large, seated Buddha statue, likely crafted from wood. The statue depicts Buddha in a meditative posture, with legs crossed in the lotus position. The overall color is a dark, warm brown, suggesting either a naturally dark wood or a stained finish that has developed a rich patina over time. The surface shows a slightly distressed or aged texture, with visible wood grain and possibly some minor nicks or variations in color consistent with age and handling. The drapery of the robes is intricately carved, featuring flowing folds that create depth and realism. The Buddha's face is serene, with downcast eyes, a gentle smile, and elongated earlobes, characteristic of Buddhist iconography. The hair is rendered in tight curls or an ushnisha, indicating wisdom. A simple, beaded necklace with a small pendant is draped around the Buddha's neck, which may be an addition by the current owner rather than an original feature of the statue. The statue rests directly on the floor, and small, possibly caster-like feet or a low base are visible beneath the cross-legged portion. The scale of the statue suggests it is a floor-standing piece, substantial in size. The craftsmanship indicates a hand-carved piece, with attention to detail in the facial features and the flow of the garments. It emanates a sense of tranquility and ancient craft.
