Laughing Buddha or Budai

Here is a garden sculpture of Budai, also known as the Laughing Buddha; in this case he is holding a string of beads and his sack of possessions. Drawn from very old folk lore and also known as a priest who brought good fortune and joy to all he encountered on his rootless wanderings, this concrete figure is seated on a lotus flower and has pleasing decorative details on all sides, 7 x 11 ½ x 4 inches, weighs just under 13 pounds— preferably this item is for store pickup only, but contact us to make shipping arrangements.
