This weathered stone sculpture depicts a seated Buddha, carved with a serene expression and poised in a traditional meditative posture. The figure is characterized by its rounded, soft features, elongated earlobes, and a tight pattern of snail-shell curls covering the head, topped by a subtle protuberance known as the ushnisha. Clad in heavy, flowing robes that drape over the shoulders and pool around the crossed legs, the Buddha rests his hands in the dhyana mudra, symbolizing deep concentration.

The entire piece is set upon an ornate, square pedestal featuring relief carvings of guardian figures or deities at the corners and a central animal motif—likely a lion—reminiscent of Northern Wei or Tang dynasty styles. The stone itself bears a mottled patina of earthy reds, grays, and whites, suggesting a history of exposure to the elements that has softened the original detail into a textured, timeless relic.
