Single cast, the Buddha standing in front of a pointed mandorla on a high lotus support that is deeply recessed on the underside, the figure shown in loose drapery falling in u-shaped folds at the torso and long, slender pleats from the arms, the right hand held in abhayamudra, the mudra of granting the absence of fear, and the left in varadamudra, the mudra of fulfilling the vow; the mandorla engraved with rows of radiating, curving flames; the reverse of the mandorla incised with five vertical columns of dedicatory inscription

The inscription on the reverse of the mandorla can be interpreted, "Disciple Zhou Mingzhi [romanized Korean Ju Myung-ji/Ju Myeong-ji] commissioned this Amitabha Buddha for his maternal grandson Zong Hengshan [romanized Korean Jong Hang-san] with the wish that Hengshan will retain his clear mind and be reborn in the pure land." It is unclear if the names refer to Chinese or Korean donors as the names are unusual in Korean.
