How to place it
In feng shui tradition, a Buddha statue is often placed at eye level or above, facing the main door or a central gathering space, as a focal point for calm and reflection. Given its 24-inch size, plan for a sturdy, stable surface such as a floor pedestal, console table, or altar shelf.
Care
Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scrubbing, which can dull the gold-tone finish, and keep it away from excess moisture.
