A handmade Yixing purple clay figurine of Shakyamuni Buddha seated in a calm meditative posture, set upon a coiled serpent base instead of the usual lotus seat.
The layered cobra-like base, with the serpent’s body rising in rounded coils beneath the Buddha, is inspired by Buddhist naga symbolism. In Buddhist tradition, the naga serpent is often associated with protection, spiritual guardianship, and sheltering the Buddha during meditation, giving this piece a powerful yet peaceful meaning.
Made from Yixing purple clay, the figurine has a warm, earthy texture that suits traditional Chinese teaware, incense settings, meditation corners, and Buddhist-inspired home decor. It can be displayed on a tea table, desk, shelf, altar-style space, or quiet home display corner as a symbolic ornament for stillness, wisdom, and protection.
A meaningful gift for tea lovers, collectors of Yixing clay figurines, or anyone interested in Buddhist art, meditation, Chinese culture, and handmade spiritual ornaments.
