Shiho-butso

Shiho-butso

The "Shiho-butso" is a very popular rustic style water basin in Japan, and is carved from grey salt and pepper type granite. The Shiho-butso has carvings of the Buddha on each side, each side having a different Buddha pose.

The original style was to be found in "Stupas" from abandoned Buddhist temples. Some were found to have "Sanskrit" words describing the Buddha in place of the carving of the Buddha.

Sizes Available:

  • Large basin with external carved Buddha - 450mm x 450mm x 500mm High (200kg)
  • Small basin with inset carved Buddha - 365mm x 365mm x 385mm High (130kg)
