The Buddha is seated on a high, multi-tiered throne in padmasana, depicting the earth touching gesture (bhumisparsa mudra).
The face with heavy-lidded downcast eyes and the smile, which can be seen quite often with Buddha statues, is typical for Buddha images of the 2nd and 3rd Ava period.
It seems that the statue has been covered later a second time with brown lacquer. The original decoration is shining through at the front of the base. Some parts with remnants of gilding.
Old repairs, several age cracks and some losses.
Sacred material have been placed in a cavity hollowed out at the back of the throne.
As a rarity here we find a carved wooden vessel (damaged)inside the hollow compartment. Lid missing.
