Description
This serene bronze Buddha head, with dimensions of 3 by 2 centimeters, is characteristic of the Post-Angkor period of Southeast Asia, likely originating from the historic regions of present-day Cambodia or Thailand. Its stylized facial features and curled hairstyle are indicative of the region's interpretation of Buddhist iconography following the decline of the Khmer Empire. Such objects were often part of larger statues that adorned temples or served as devotional objects in private shrines. The patina and wear suggest significant age and a long history of veneration or use in rituals.
