Four Early 19th C. Burmese Leaded Bronze Opium Weights

Item Details

Description

**First Time At Auction**

Southeast Asia, Burma (Myanmar), ca. early 19th century CE. A collection of four bronze opium weights in a series of descending sizes with the largest being in the form of a hintha-bird, while the others are of a charming duck form. The hintha is a mythical chicken-like beast, here elaborately portrayed with large crests, tail feathers, and beak. Animal-shaped weights were a charming tool used to weigh not just opium but any item that needed to be weighed - food, raw materials, and metals. After the British occupied Burma in 1885, they introduced flat, round iron weights that replaced these whimsical bronze examples. Size of largest: 0.9" L x 0.75" W x 3.5" H (2.3 cm x 1.9 cm x 8.9 cm)

Provenance: private J.H. collection, Beaverton, Oregon, USA
