Standing bodhisattva figure within a wooden frame surround. Clothing and expressions are indicated by sparse, confident chisel cuts.

The figure is depicted frontally, hands pressed together at the chest in añjali mudrā. Añjali mudrā is associated with veneration and greeting across Buddhist traditions and is comparatively rare as the primary gesture in Japanese devotional sculpture, where iconographic convention typically assigns figures more differentiated hand positions.

The object shows evidence of sustained devotional use over an extended period. Provenance suggests a domestic or small temple context.
