D :7.7cm This round plaque is a Qing Dynasty gilt-bronze artefact, featuring a thick, lustrous layer of gold and a rich, natural patina. The centre of the plaque is decorated with a high-relief Maitreya Buddha, depicted with a bare chest and belly, a broad and joyful smile, and a plump, endearing form. Flanked by scrolling foliage and auspicious bird motifs, the background is densely engraved with fine rosette patterns, while the edge is adorned with openwork scrolling cloud designs. Executed with exquisite craftsmanship and distinct decorative layers, it combines aesthetic appeal with religious symbolism, serving as a classic example of folk Buddhist accessories from the Qing Dynasty and holding considerable artistic and collectible value.
