The Great Buddha of Kamakura, known as the Daibutsu, is primarily made of bronze. It was cast using the lost-wax technique and is set on a stone pedestal. The statue stands at approximately 13.35 meters (43.8 feet) tall and was completed in 1252. Over the years, it has developed a green patina due to oxidation of the bronze.
