About the Item

A wonderful hand carved stone-carved antique Southeast Asian Buddha head/bust temple/shrine sculpture, possibly from the Thai, Burma, Laos region but perhaps also Japan. The vintage work is carved from dark, almost black stone. The detail and level of craftmanship are quite exquisite, the Buddha, eyes closed in meditation, conveys his traditional serene calming expression. We are listing the sculpture as 19th century but it could be older. A solid, heavy, beautiful piece. Would be a great addition to any Southeast Asian art or artifacts collection or make for an eye-catching stand-alone accent work in about any setting. Dimensions: 9" High, 5.5" Wide, 6.25" Deep.
