Description
Black Oxidised Copper Finish – Handcrafted Sacred Statue
This Black Oxidised Copper Finish variant presents Zhabdrung Ngawang Namgyal Rinpoche in a deeply traditional and contemplative form. Crafted by skilled Bhutanese artisans, the statue is shaped from high-quality copper and finished using a controlled oxidation process that produces a rich black surface.
The darkened finish enhances sculptural depth, allowing facial expressions, robes, and iconographic details to stand out with clarity and solemn presence.
Material & Finish
This statue is expertly handcrafted in Bhutan using 90% pure copper. After casting and hand-finishing, the surface undergoes a traditional black oxidation treatment, creating a natural dark patina without the use of paint.
This method has been used for centuries in Himalayan Buddhist art to achieve a dignified, timeless appearance while preserving the integrity of the metal beneath.

Black oxidised copper statues are traditionally associated with stability, protection, and deep meditative focus. This finish reduces visual distraction and encourages inward reflection, making it especially suitable for serious practitioners and formal practice spaces.
Over time, subtle variations may develop, further enhancing the statue’s character and authenticity.
