The Chinese name, 莲悟, joins lotus to awakening. The leaf here is turned up like a hand shielding the figure, its surface the pitted green of old bronze, and the gold stem lifts one pale blue bloom over his head.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is a piece for one person's corner rather than a hallway: a reading chair, a bedside, the shelf you face when you sit down to meditate.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Serenity Art \u0026 Homes","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49897082126488,"sku":null,"price":107.8,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0528\/5517\/7368\/files\/monk-beneath-a-lotus-leaf-hero.png?v=1789362716","url":"https:\/\/www.serenityartnhome.com\/products\/monk-beneath-a-lotus-leaf","provider":"Serenity Art \u0026 Home","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
