Vintage Japanese Rustic Buddhist wood carving of Fudo Myoo

Here we have Fudo Myoo the Immovable King of Wisdom in Japanese Buddhism. In his right hand he should be holding a sword, representing wisdom, used to cut through ignorance and negativity. In the left hand he holds a rope or noose with attached weights that is used to bind the enemies of enlightenment. A more rustic carving, possibly even unfinished. As a carver myself I find these more rustic carvings some what alluring, unrefined and unpolished the hand of the maker is evident. I particularly love the graphic almost two dimensional nature of the crossed legs and feet on the lap. There are cracks to the base, but I believe these to be stable. If you would like us to make a replacement sword, we can do that. But it will cost a bit more, so if your interested please let us know. Measures 18cm tall x 13cm wide
