Why is the sitting Buddha so valuable?

Why is the sitting Buddha so valuable?

The vast majority of jade Buddha statues on the market are sitting, and the seated Buddhas generally have kind eyes and are amiable. Generally speaking, sitting Buddhas have a higher value for three reasons:

1. In terms of materials, the jade sitting Buddha is round in shape and has a relatively large belly. Not only does it use more materials, but it also produces a lot of scraps, so the cost is naturally higher.

2. In terms of symbolism, the shape of the seated Buddha is actually the Buddhist meditation posture. The Buddha's hands hang naturally, showing the mudra of granting wishes, which is a gesture with auspicious meaning. Therefore, the jade sitting Buddha symbolizes blocking all unfavorable factors, warding off evil spirits, preventing villains, and calming the mind. It has a simple and plain meaning and is a relatively common jade theme.

3: From the perspective of the audience, the jade sitting Buddha is more round and full, giving people a more blessed feeling. It is especially suitable for the elderly and children to wear, so it is more popular.
