Taoist and Buddhist statues - Say Tian Hng Buddha Shop.jpg

Where gods are born

Say Tian Hng Buddha Shop is a 6th-generation family business in Singapore that has been crafting and restoring wooden statues of Daoist and Buddhist deities lovingly by hand since 1840.

We make only a few dozen statues each year. Every piece is unique, crafted with techniques passed down the ages.

Our customers cover a wide spectrum, comprising cultural-lovers, devotees and temples from Asia, Europe and North America who acquire our statues as religious objects of worship or non-religious works of art.

​​

We ship internationally via DHL.

“My statue arrived in France in perfect condition. The quality is exceptional and the statue looks even nicer than what I expected from the photographs. I have visited many shops in Asia selling similar statues and I have to say that the quality of your work is far above!”
