Asian culture mixed with a touch of the southwest. A small sitting laughing Buddha is paired with a rectangular turquoise gemstone for a meaningful and colorful earring. Buddha comes from the Sanskrit root budh, meaning to awaken. Anyone who has become enlightened or fully awakened to the true nature of things is considered a Buddha. The important function of a Buddha is to act as a teacher and to lead others. Buddha measures 3/8" wide x 7/16" in length and the turquoise gemstone measures 1/4" wide x 5/16" in length, with a total length of 1 3/4" (from top of earwire). See our Taos Trading Storefront for a great selection of jewelry designs and styles, along with a wide variety of Buddhist and Hindu related items.
