The dark iron surface gives the piece a quiet sculptural presence, while the simplified treatment of the hair and facial contours preserves the contemplative character of the original Buddhist image.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe famous Miroku Bosatsu of Chūgū-ji is one of the best-known early Buddhist sculptures in Japan and is admired for its graceful expression of meditation and compassion. This decorative mask translates that spiritual image into a compact cast-iron form suitable for display in a tokonoma, study, meditation space, or alongside a collection of Japanese Buddhist and folk art.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe work is signed by Hakudō (博堂) and retains a small cord at the side for hanging. A beautiful vintage devotional object combining Nara Buddhist imagery, traditional Japanese metalwork, and the tranquil expression of Miroku Bosatsu.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSize: 13 x 21 x 8cm \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Maison Kyo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58512229466443,"sku":"FT568","price":48.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0964\/9746\/7723\/files\/Cover_30634e6e-2441-4b05-94a1-8770a160f6c1.jpg?v=1789670777","url":"https:\/\/fr.maisonkyo.be\/fr\/products\/ft568-miroku-bosatsu-mask-by-hakudo-%e5%8d%9a%e5%a0%82","provider":"Maison Kyo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
