Dukar / Sitatapatra Gold-Gilded Statue: A Sacred Symbol of Protection and Compassion
This handcrafted Dukar statue represents Sitatapatra, the revered protective deity known as the White Parasol in Tibetan Buddhism. Created using an authentic cast body and traditional hand-carving techniques, the statue stands 34.5 cm tall and carries a balanced weight of 3.95 kg. Finished with multiple layers of 24K gold and carefully decorated with acrylic and poster colors, the sculpture reflects both strength and grace. Coral stone accents add warmth and visual depth, enhancing the statue’s sacred presence. Every detail reflects the skill and devotion of Nepalese master artisans, making this piece a meaningful addition to any spiritual or artistic collection.
Dukar is shown seated on a lotus base, symbolizing purity, clarity, and freedom from worldly imperfection. Her right hand is raised in the abhaya mudra, a gesture of reassurance and protection that conveys fearlessness and safety. In her left hand, she holds a parasol, the defining symbol of Sitatapatra, representing shelter, defense, and protection from harmful influences and unseen obstacles.
Her calm expression and graceful posture reflect compassionate strength rather than force, emphasizing protection through wisdom and awareness. The rich gold surface and coral embellishments highlight her exalted nature, reinforcing her role as a guardian deity who offers comfort, stability, and spiritual protection.
