Large Turquoise & Stone Thai Buddha - 0.96m

At just under a metre tall, this Thai Buddha occupies a generous middle ground — large enough to hold its own as a garden or hallway focal point, but more accessible than a monumental piece, and easier to place.

Thai Buddha statues are stylistically distinct from their Tibetan, Burmese, or Chinese counterparts. The tradition favours elongated, refined features — a slender face, gently curved brows, and the distinctive flame-like ushnisha (the crown protrusion at the top of the head, symbolising enlightenment). The result is a figure that reads as graceful rather than imposing.

The turquoise and stone finish is a contemporary palette rather than a strictly traditional one — Thai temple statues historically lean toward gilded gold or weathered bronze — but the cool blue-green works beautifully alongside modern garden planting and pared-back interiors, with the stone-textured base giving it earthy weight.

Cast in fibre cement and hand-finished by skilled artisans, the statue carries the weight and substance of stone with the durability to withstand exposure to the elements. Equally suited to a sheltered garden corner, a covered terrace, or an indoor space that wants a calming focal point. Small variations in finish and detailing come naturally with hand-working — no two are identical.
