Chinese Carved White Stone Laughing Buddha Figure

A charming Chinese carved white stone figure depicting Budai, popularly known as the Laughing Buddha. The figure is immediately recognizable through his characteristic joyful expression, rounded cheeks, and generously proportioned body. His broad, rounded form gives the sculpture a sense of warmth and approachability, while the softly carved facial features reinforce his cheerful character. The pale stone provides a clean, luminous appearance, allowing the contours of the body and face to remain the focus of the composition. The contrast between the compact figure and his exaggeratedly rounded proportions gives the sculpture its distinctive charm.
