About the Item
This antique pair of wooden Burmese monk statues is a rare and exquisite example of 19th-century Shan (Tai Yai) style Buddhist art from Burma (Myanmar). Expertly carved from wood and finely gilded with 24 krt. gold, each statue measures 63.5 cm high, 23.5 cm wide, and 24 cm deep, with a combined weight of 16.2 kgs. The monks are depicted in the Namaskara mudra, the gesture of respectful salutation and devotion, symbolizing humility and reverence.
Their serene expressions and elegant proportions reflect the refined craftsmanship and deep spiritual artistry of the Shan tradition. As a pair, these statues are especially meaningful, representing harmony, devotion, and balance within Buddhist practice. Such well-preserved and beautifully gilded monk figures are very rarely available on the market, making this set an extraordinary find for collectors, museums, or anyone seeking to honor and preserve authentic Burmese Buddhist heritage.
