About the Item

One of my all-time favorites out of more than 10 thousand of Buddhas I have owned over the past 3+ decades. I believe this is a transitional piece that is late-Pyu and contemporary with the Pagan period, although I have never seen another like it. See attached Oxford TL test which dates it at up to 800 years old. YES- it really IS that green-the photos are accurate. Probably the ones that show the color the closest are the one with the ruler in it, and the two showing the recently made custom base. The two with the base were taken with a different camera. It is extremely large for its type. I've had several experts who have been amazed by this piece, as they have studied and collected Burmese sculpture for decades, and never seen another close to this in size, color, or personality. It stands 9 5/8 inches tall. This piece measures 5.75 inches wide, 4.5 inches deep, and 11.75 inches tall with its custom base. Expensive for a Burmese Buddha, but perhaps not for a true one-of-a-kind piece that could be in a museum. The face is almost cartoon-like, and at the same time, it has a deeply committed concentration as profound as any you will find on the most sophisticated of Buddhas. Inventory # 8439

15th Century Northern Thai Bronze Buddha Masterpiece w Provenance - 9200

Located in Ukiah, CA

Masterpiece 15th century Northern Thai bronze Buddha. This is the best of the best. Traces of gilding in the crevices of the hair, behind the ears, etcetera. The casting is crisp, the sculpting shows great finesse and depth, the patina is beautiful and complex and desirable, the proportions are classic, and the face as deep and serene and beautiful as any you will find on any Buddha. It is extremely large and is the largest high-end period bronze Buddha from Thailand I have ever had the pleasure of offering at 31 inches tall and in the range of 50 to 60 pounds (most of the clay core scooped out) (Outstanding provenance -from the personal collection of Ali A. Abssi (1934-2020) founder of the Ishtar gate...
