Antique Japanese Wooden Jizō Bosatsu (Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva) Standing on Lotus Base10”

A finely carved antique Japanese Jizō Bosatsu (Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva) standing gracefully upon a lotus pedestal. This figure, carved from wood, represents one of the most beloved bodhisattvas in Japan, known for his vow to guide and protect all beings, especially travelers, children, and those suffering in the afterlife.

The statue features flowing robes, a serene expression, and remnants of original detail, all weathered with age to a natural patina that speaks to its history and devotional use. Jizō is often depicted holding a wish-fulfilling jewel (hōju) and a staff (shakujō), though time and handling have softened some of the details here, enhancing its antique character.

A beautiful and spiritually meaningful piece for collectors of Buddhist art, Japanese antiques, or those seeking a devotional figure with history.
