Brass Laughing Buddha Idol with Raised Hands — 2.5 Inches | Hotei / Budai / Happy Buddha Statue of Wealth, Joy & Good Luck for Home, Office & Gifting
Welcome wealth, happiness, and unlimited good fortune into your space with this charming 2.5-inch brass Laughing Buddha idol with raised hands — one of the most beloved feng shui and Vastu showpieces across the world. Known by his many auspicious names — Hotei, Budai, Pu-Tai, Happy Buddha, Smiling Buddha, Fat Buddha, Buddha of Wealth, Maitreya Buddha (the Future Buddha), Cloth-Bag Monk, and the Laughing Monk — this beloved figure originated in 10th-century China as a Zen monk known for his cheerful nature, generosity, and ability to spread joy wherever he went.
This delightful murti depicts the Laughing Buddha in his iconic "Victory Pose" — both arms raised triumphantly above his head, holding ingots or gold balls (representing wealth and prosperity), with his mouth wide open in joyous, hearty laughter. This particular posture is one of the most powerful and auspicious forms of the Laughing Buddha — symbolising success, victory over obstacles, the joyful arrival of wealth, and the spreading of abundance to all directions. His large round belly is believed to be the storehouse of all the troubles and worries of those who rub it — turning negativity into joy.
Crafted from premium-grade solid brass with a warm golden antique finish, this statue is meticulously detailed — featuring the Buddha's broad smile, twinkling eyes, prominent ears (a sign of long life and wisdom), traditional robes, and the symbolic potli/cloth-bag that represents the unlimited treasures he carries to bless devotees. Standing 2.5 inches tall and 2 inches wide, this compact yet expressive figurine is incredibly versatile.
This brass Laughing Buddha is perfect for office desks, cash counters, billing tables, shop entrances, study tables, home shelves, car dashboards, wealth corners, and gifting hampers. Whether you are a business owner seeking growth, a professional aiming for promotions, a student preparing for exams, or someone who simply wants to invite joy and prosperity, this Hotei figurine becomes your daily talisman of happiness. It also makes a deeply meaningful gift for housewarmings (Griha Pravesh), Diwali, Dhanteras, Chinese New Year, business inaugurations, birthdays, weddings, and New Year celebrations.
