19th century Antique bronze Thai Sukhothai Buddha statue in Bhumisparsha Mudra

About the Item

Step into the golden age of Thai Buddhist artistry with this Antique bronze Thai Sukhothai Buddha statue, a monumental 19th-century masterpiece that embodies the spiritual elegance and technical brilliance of Thailand’s revered Sukhothai period. Standing 72.5 cm tall with a majestic 58 cm width and 32 cm depth, this awe-inspiring bronze sculpture captures the Buddha in the Bhumisparsha mudra, his right hand touching the earth to witness his enlightenment—an iconic symbol of wisdom triumphing over illusion. Originating from Thailand, where Sukhothai-style Buddhas are celebrated for their ethereal grace, elongated limbs, and serene facial features, this statue exemplifies the kingdom’s legacy of sacred artistry. Crafted using the lost-wax casting method, its fluid, flame-like ushnisha (cranial protuberance) and smooth, meditative expression reflect the Sukhothai school’s pursuit of divine perfection. Traces of 24-karat gold gilding on the surface hint at its original opulence, likely commissioned for royal temples or monastic sanctuaries during a period of Buddhist revival. Weighing 39.05 kgs, its monumental scale and refined proportions underscore the mastery of Thai metalworkers, who balanced spiritual symbolism with artistic innovation. The statue’s weathered patina and remnants of ritual use—perhaps from centuries of veneration—add layers of historical authenticity. Ideal for collectors of Asian religious antiquities, historians, or spaces seeking a transcendent focal point, this Sukhothai Buddha is a cultural heirloom, bridging Thailand’s spiritual heritage and artistic zenith. With museum-caliber presence and profound symbolism, it invites reverence for both its craftsmanship and the timeless serenity of Thai Buddhist tradition.
