This bronze sculpture depicts the Buddha seated in meditation with his legs crossed, his right hand gently touching the earth in the bhūmisparśa mudrā ("Earth-Touching Gesture"), symbolizing the moment he called upon the Earth to witness his enlightenment and triumph over Māra. His left hand rests on his lap, palm facing upward, in a gesture of meditation.
 
The oval face, almond-shaped eyes, straight nose, and well-defined lips reflect the stylistic conventions of the Tai Yai (Shan) workshops, whose artistic tradition was shaped by both Burmese and Siamese influences. The high ushnisha, surmounted by a slender flame finial, is a distinctive feature of regional Shan Buddhist sculpture.
 
The surface retains a beautiful caramel-colored patina, lending the sculpture a warm, ritual character. The stepped pedestal, embellished with finely incised decorative motifs, enhances the monumentality and verticality of the figure. This refined image embodies the deep Buddhist devotion of the Tai Yai communities of Shan State, whose artistic heritage combines Burmese, Lao, and Thai influences.
