Celadon Ceramic Sweeping Monk Statue with a Broom for a Calm Desk Setup
Couldn't load pickup availability

This Celadon Ceramic Sweeping Monk Statue is a small handcrafted figure of a robed monk standing at rest with a long broom, its robe finished in a soft jade-green glaze while the head, hands, and broom are left in unglazed brown clay. The faceless, minimalist form gives the piece a calm, quiet presence. At about 2.76 inches tall, it suits desks, tea tables, shelves, and meditation corners.
Cultural Symbolism & Artistic Design
Sweeping monk: In Chan (Zen) Buddhist tradition, everyday chores such as sweeping were treated as practice in themselves; the seventh-century master Shenxiu famously compared the mind to a bright mirror that should be kept free of dust, and the image of a monk with a broom grew from that imagery. Here the motif appears as a standing robed figure holding a broom in a relaxed, unhurried pose.
Formless figure: The monk is shown without facial features. In Chan-influenced art, formlessness has traditionally been associated with a reality beyond outward appearance, and the featureless face keeps attention on posture and stillness rather than on any single individual.
Celadon glaze: The pale green glaze belongs to the celadon tradition of East Asian ceramics. Its muted, jade-like tone echoes the place jade holds in Chinese tradition, where it has long been regarded as a symbol of refinement and quiet virtue; the unglazed brown clay adds a soft two-tone contrast.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the green color a glaze or paint?
It is a glaze. The robe carries a glossy celadon-style ceramic glaze fired onto the clay, while the head, hands, and broom are left unglazed with a natural brown clay finish.
Will 2.76 inches look too small on my desk?
It is a palm-sized accent piece measuring about 3.5 x 1.5 x 7 cm. It reads best up close on a desk, tea table, or shelf rather than as a large statement sculpture, so place it where you will see it from a short distance.
Does the faceless design look unfinished?
No. The featureless face is the intended minimalist style of this formless-monk design, meant to convey calm and stillness rather than a portrait of a specific person.
Can I put it outdoors or in the bathroom?
Keep it indoors. The mix of glazed and unglazed ceramic can absorb moisture, so avoid bathrooms, plant saucers, and outdoor exposure.
How should I clean it?
Wipe it gently with a soft, dry cloth. If needed, use a barely damp cloth on the glazed robe and dry it immediately; avoid detergents and abrasives.
