The Four-Faced Buddha symbol embodies the four directions, the four seasons and the four great aspects of life — loving-kindness, compassion, sympathetic joy and equanimity. This 6 cm brass figurine is a fusion of Feng Shui and Buddhist tradition, and exactly the kind of small decorative object that adds quiet but characterful presence to a desk, shelf or meditation corner.
Brass — a noble and durable material
The figurine is made from brass, an alloy metal with its characteristic warm golden-yellow tone and distinctive lustre. Brass has been a favoured material for spiritual objects for centuries — durable, resistant and developing a patina over time that deepens its character. The compact 6 cm figurine is small and stable, with a weighted base.
Feng Shui — the art of energy and harmony
Feng Shui is the ancient Chinese teaching based on the flow of energy between a person and their surroundings. The Four-Faced Buddha symbol is a source of positive energy — the four faces watch over and protect the space in the four directions. Placing spiritual figurines in accordance with Feng Shui principles is believed to improve the energy of a home and create greater harmony.
Decorative and spiritual in equal measure
The figurine appeals equally to those who consciously practise Feng Shui principles and to those simply looking for a beautiful, characterful Eastern decorative object. Its small size makes it ideal for a bookshelf, a desk, a windowsill or a meditation corner.
