Late 19th century Carve Stone Cambodian Buddha

About the Item

This sage green carved stone Buddha was purchased from an upstate NY garden where it has resided for the last 120 years. The family began the house and garden in the late 1890s and traveled through China, Southeast Asia and Europe acquiring objects to create a complete retirement home for themselves and their family from New York City. Sculptures like this are a typical form found at Angkor of numerous sizes representing Nagas and used as guardians of temples. This figure was a favorite motif of Angkorean sculptors from the 12 century on through to the present time. Shown is the Buddha sitting in a posture of meditation. His weight is supported by the coils of a naga or snake that has used its flared hood to shield the Buddha from above. This motif recalls the story of the Buddha and his encounter with the serpent king Mucalinda during the first week after his enlightenment. While the Buddha sat beneath a tree engrossed in meditation Mucalinda came up from the roots of the tree to shield the Buddha from a sudden severe storm that was forming. The serpent king keeps the Buddha warm and dry for seven days the duration of the storm. After the storm finally passed the great snake turned into a young man who paid respect to the Buddha. The carving is crisp and clean with a great deal of detail and Buddhistic representation. The statue has the long ears associated with Cambodian and Thai Buddhas and the figure was purchased by the family legend in the last years of the 1890s but might even be older than that but we can only assert it to be late 19th or early 20th century. The figure was damaged during a storm when a tree branch fell and it has an old repair to the neck but it is a repair done with a professional hand and has lasted for over 50 years in its current condition. The sculpture retains much of its surface patina from its years of exposure to the elements and still shows lichen and tendril attachments from vining creepers. While the figure is shown without a pedestal we have for an additional fee a very nice custom made interior pedestal crafted from walnut that we can offer if a customer is interested.Condition Disclosure: While we do our best to carefully inspect and give a full report on the condition of any item we sell, pointing out any repairs or alterations that may have been done to the best of our knowledge, as is the case with any antique and vintage item, there is a possibility that at some point in the life of the piece that there may have been damaged which has been professionally repaired and as such a repair undetectable, it is therefore impossible for us to disclose... we recommend that you also read and agree to the 1st dibs user agreement, particularly sections 9,13,15,18,19 and 27
