The very Chinese transforming of the Maitreya Buddha (Milefo) was the Laughing Buddha, also called Bigbelly or Potbelly Buddha. The Milefo (彌勒佛) with his hempen bag is a mere representation of Chinese life ideals: the big belly symbolizes wealth and prosperity, his reclining pose shows spiritual contentment and relaxation, and the many children surrounding him reflect the wish for a happy family.
This wonderful seal features the laughing Maitreya at the top and a Chinese character "Fo" (means Buddha) at the base. It is not only a seal, but also a symbol of optimistic life attitude!
