Stunning large vintage brass Buddha statue in Dhyana mudra on Muchalinda naga (cobra) with the large scale cobra head with intricate detail as the backdrop with blue gem stone inlaid eyes on naga. Detail on brass work is similar to the museum quality Sri Lankan/Ceylonese Buddha statues are known for and the exquisite details on this statue aligns with the great craftsmanship Ceylonese crafatsmen are known for. The inlaid eyes are probably Ceylon/Sri Lankan Blue Sapphires. Provenance: from an important collection of a Los Angeles, USA collection. Mucalinda, Muchalinda or Mucilinda is the name of a naga.

Like being, who protected the Gautama Buddha. From the elements after his enlightenment.
