Details: A beautiful example of a Gandharan Buddha hand mounted on a perspex base. The finely carved fingers tapering elegantly, with the webbing delicately between them. The Buddha's webbed fingers are one of the thirty-two major signs (lakshanas) of his superhuman nature. (As legend has it, Buddha’s webbed fingers are representative of a net to gather in his followers.) Age: 2-3rd Century. Height: 10.5 cm including base.
