The Thai Buddha is made from resin and has been finished in traditional colours, with glass mirrored tiles used as garment detailing. The Buddha has been mounted on to leaf shaped backing made from metal that has been decorated with crackle glass and mirrored tiles. the Buddha and backing have been mounted onto a wooden base by 2 metal rods, which have been finished in black paint.

The Statue above of "the Buddha calling the earth to witness," the most common representation of the Buddha. The Buddha's hands are in the bhūmisparśa mudrā (Earth-touching position) or by its more literal meaning, "Buddha subduing Māra" (the demon who tempted the Buddha by trying to seduce him with the vision of beautiful women). The gesture thus symbolises the Buddha's renunciation of worldly desire, and since this is the central moral precept of Buddhism this is by far the most commonly depicted mudrā.
