About this piece

Carved from hinoki (Japanese cypress) and finished to keep the natural character of the wood, this Amida Nyorai is made in a compact format intended for home interiors. The model follows a widely recognized Japanese Buddhist sculptural type—calm, front-facing, and composed—adapted here as a small-scale devotional figure in the tradition of accessible household icons rather than large temple commissions.

Cultural note

In Japan, images of Amida Nyorai (Amitābha) are closely associated with Pure Land Buddhism and are approached as objects of reverence rather than decoration. Amida is understood, in broad terms, as a Buddha of boundless light and compassion, offering a sense of welcome and reassurance. Many households treat such figures with simple respect: placing them a little above eye level when possible, keeping the area clean, and handling the statue with clean hands and a calm mindset—especially when moving it or setting it down.
