Seated Buddha, stone fragment

A weathered pale stone fragment carved in relief with a seated figure whose draped robes fall in stylized folds across the lap and sides. Broken edges and worn surfaces expose the rough stone core, and the figure sits within a simple, shallow frame against a neutral grey background.
