Dating to around 1950, this masterpiece combines artistry, symbolism, and heritage, making it an exceptional addition to both contemporary and traditional interiors.

Cultural and Spiritual Significance

Bodh Gaya is the sacred site where Gautama Buddha attained enlightenment under the Bodhi Tree, and this sculpture reflects that enduring spiritual resonance. The Tree of Life embodies growth, wisdom and interconnectedness. In Buddhist tradition it represents enlightenment and the eternal cycle of renewal, while in Hindu mythology it symbolises Lord Vishnu as the preserver of cosmic order. This makes the piece a rare multi-faith artwork that bridges cultures and beliefs.
