Description
Thailand, 14th century, Utong Style. Incredible early bronze seated Buddha! Buddha is shown seated with hands in Varamudra position, looking slightly downward, hair in tightly curled buns with flame atop his head and classic elongated earlobes. We are a bit unsure why the lacquered areas appear to have a very fine crushed crystal layer over it - but this is something we have not seen before. If any viewer has experience with this, please contact us! 8-1/8" H. An incredible example!
