Buddha Head - Labradorite (20 cm)

A stunning Buddha Head in precious Labradorite. The Buddha Head is a popular representation of the Buddha and his characteristics. Statues of Buddha Heads are created to represent the vast wealth of knowledge he possessed, being the awakened one. The elongated earlobes represent the Buddha’s ability to hear or perceive reality as it is, and serve as a reminder of the renunciation of the wealth he was once weighed down by. 

The artist's skill and technique allows for depiction of the Buddha in perfect form and absolute symmetry. A symmetry that defines a balance between Yin and Yang (feminine and masculine) energies. The artist sees the Buddha as a universal symbol of love, harmony and inner peace.

ABOUT LABRADORITE:

Beyond the beautiful form and features of this Buddha head is the mystical nature of the Labradorite gemstone. Labradorite is a celebrated stone, used for centuries by healers and shamans around the world for its powerful protective and healing properties, as well as its ability to heighten intuition and psychic abilities. Labradorite strengthens the aura and guards our bioenergetic field from negative energy. It is also a gem commonly used for spiritual guidance as it strengthens our "sixth sense" and intuition.
