About This Piece
Vairocana Buddha sits at the centre of a round medallion between curling side ornaments. The broad lotus throne follows the lower arc, creating a balanced circular composition.
Carving details and what to examine
The small figure details are useful points for a closer inspection: follow the visible contours rather than judging the work only from the overall silhouette. A gently rotated view helps reveal how the face, clothing or head ornament joins the surrounding surface.
Material and stated origin
This plaque is listed as white nephrite and depicts Vairocana Buddha. Its stated origin is Xinjiang, China; the geographic attribution is separate from mineral identification.
