About the Item

Architectural portal sculpture made of solid teak with original green-turquoise coloring, India, last third of the 18th century. As the name suggests, the object originates from an architectural element, probably a door, an entrance portal and has a monumental character. The expressive carving of a curved, ribbed central section, scales and floral eldements wrap around this central section. The traces of ageing on the wood and the paint finish create a striking impression. The object has a very decorative character and appears lively and strong. The formerly installed back is natural teak wood and slightly flatter in the carving heights and depths. The object is firmly mounted on a black iron stand (14x14x0.7cm)

Asian Figural Bronze Table Lamp of a Lying Buddha with Green Shade Myanmar 1920s
Located in Salzburg, AT
This early 20th-century Mandalay-style reclining monk, made of patinated bronze, has been transformed into a figurative table lamp. The disciple has a peaceful face and a resting, elegant posture. His face is handsome, with a slight smile and a straight nose. His robe lies in lush, wave-like folds on the surface of his body, reflecting the soft contours of the body beneath. The robe is richly decorated and suggests embroidery in silver, gold, and pearls. To match the object, the lamp structure was crafted in bronze and fitted with two sockets. The rectangular, dark green shade completes the lamp. Dimensons of sculpture on base: W 43 x D 12 x H 18cm The Mandalay-style Buddhist monk statue...
