Bronze Siamese Asian Buddha Antiquity Hand Sculpture Fragment, 15th-16th Century
About the Item
A wonderful and very special piece.
This bronze buddha hand sculpture, perhaps a fragment of a larger piece at one time, originally came from the prestigious Doris Wiener Gallery in New York City (please see the gallery tag on the underside of the wood base). She was the biggest dealer in Asian art and artifacts. Her clients included the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Los Angeles County Museum, Art Institute of Chicago, the National Gallery of Australia, The Cleveland Museum of Art, The Norton Simon Museum of Art, and The Brooklyn Museum to name a few. Christie's sold much of her collection in 2012.
We think this piece is from Siam (now Thailand), but it could very well be from any number of countries, Burma, Laos, Cambodia, etc. in the region.
The notation on the gallery tag attached on the underside of the wood base dates this piece to somewhere in the 15th-16th centuries.
This piece would clearly be a great addition to any Asian artifacts collection and sure to stand out when properly displayed in many settings.
Dimensions including wood base: 2.25" high, 5.5" wide, 2.25" deep.

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.
