Hotai Buddha Oil Burner

Two Hotai (Ho Tai) Happy Buddhas hold up a glass aroma burner. Glass and tea light candle included as pictured. Often called the Happy Buddha, he is really a Hotai, a monk of the T'ang Dynasty. He was known for carrying a sack of candy which he handed out to children in the street. Many Chinese Buddhist believe he was an incarnation of the Buddha Maitreya, the Buddha of the Future. Today he is regarded as a historical figure of Good Fortune and Prosperity.
