I am so thrilled with the quality of the garden buddha sculpture! It is solid and of significant weight, and it looks perfect in a corner of my garden. I have an antique buddha in my house, purchased years ago from Indonnesia, and one would have to be an expert to tell the difference between the genuine antique and my new buddha.

I echo the other reviews--this is a beautiful sculpture. I ordered the white one and have it sitting in a minimalist landscape. It's sitting on polished, black river rock in a bed of yellow Japanese forest grass and purple coral bells. The smaller size works perfectly in this particular area of my garden. The sculpture is made of a heavy, quality, textured stone; and intricately carved detail. If you've been looking for a buddha sculpture in this size, grab this one. You won't be disappointed.

zI very much like this Buddha. It is a nice size for sitting on a planter or shelf which can hold a relatively heavy object. figure is very black so you do need to really look to see the features. The statue is made of concrete and black lava which I find seriously cool. The surface is not only very black but grainy. Quite unusual for garden statues and a good way to use lava and other natural materials.

This was my 3rd piece I bought for the Garden from and each time they get better and better. This piece looks great in the garden.

Exactly as described, including the details provided by the reviewers. Love this piece. Nice size and weight. Actually placing it in nooks in my kitchen (for now). It is so cute. Looking to have a peaceful retreat and thought a Buddhist theme would be nice. Studying to make sure I also knowledgeable, with these statues as my inspiration. I actually like the black one more that the white, as the detail is very apparent though subtle. Both are quite nice though and you should be happy with either.

Perfect addition to my garden. High quality.

I initially bought 1 Buddha (Antique color) to do a Buddha Garden for my friend. When the shipment arrived, I liked it so much that I ordered 2 more (another Antique & Black color) for myself and another friend. The quality of the statue is so good, it doesn't look cheap and it is quite heavy. I don't have to worry that it will topple when there is strong wind. I 'm sure a lot of my friends will also buy this once they see the Buddha Garden that i will make.

This sculpture is much nicer than anything else in the price range. Details are fine and the sand grains are lit by some volcanic ashes. This piece serves us indoors, but it would look fine outdoors, too.

I ordered this for my outdoor garden serenity area. I like the statue, it's very serene and looks nice and seems like it should last a long time. My only comment is that it's very small. I knew it would be small but I was surprised at how small it "seems" when it's outside in a garden setting. If you're OK with that, then it's a good buy. It's also very heavy and seems to be made of black volcanic stone.

made my garden peaceful! It's heavy and great quality.

I fully intend to use this gorgeous Buddha in my bathroom, and was delighted to find he came with cushions attached to the bottom so there'll be no scratched surfaces. He's perfectly suitable for a garden as well. He's heavy and will not get blown away or knocked over. What a great sculpture for an excellent price.

Beautiful Buddha! I got the one in white and it is very nicely crafted with attention to details. Has a very friendly and peaceful face. Love this Buddha.

Very subtle, matte black Buddha. Cast stone with crisp details.

Pleasantly surprised with the wonderful quality of this little statue. I have the Antique Chocolate colour & it has a lovely, aged patina to it. I am very happy with it.

Very attractive and jet black but at 8 inches is smaller than I had anticipated. It was likely described accurately, I was just surprised when I got it out. I have concerns that the surface will be a magnet for dust due to it's courseness but that remains to be seen. I set it up with Asian art and a lit votive and took a picture. A friend is using that picture for labels for her Artisan Soaps. She thought it was just 'perfect'. I am pleased and glad I bought it, just wish it had been bigger.

I love this Buddha statue. Bought it for my garden and now I love my garden more!

Love this Buddha Great addition to my garden Highly recommended

I love this little Buddha. It feels right at home in my garden. Great vibes, very peaceful! :)

I placed this garden Buddha sculpture on the stone wall bordering my outdoor patio. He sits there as if blessing the multiple hosta plants and other perennials surrounding him. His serene presence has a calming effect on myself and any guests who join me, and I highly recommend this purchase to others!

I have this in my garden and it evokes serenity
