Bronze Thai Siam Asian Temple Shrine Buddha Head Bust Fragment 18th-19th Century

About the Item

A beautifully sculpted Thai/ Siam Southeast Asian bronze Buddha head on a custom wood stand. The Buddha's eyes are closed in serene meditation. This beautiful gem has a wonderful feel and heft to it. Very well well crafted with a gorgeous natural organic patina acquired over age. This bust/fragment likely belonged to a larger Buddha statue/sculpture at one time. From a Los Angeles collection of Asian artifacts. Would make for a nice addition to any South-East Asian artifacts or Buddha collection or be an eye-catching stand-alone accent piece in about any setting. We are listing it as 18th-19th century but could very well be older. Approximate dimensions (including stand): 5.25" high, 3" wide, 1.75" deep. Head/Bust: 4" high, 2.5" wide.
