18th Century Antique Chiang Saen Mounted Buddha Head Statue - 30cm/12"
Measures - (Height) 30cm/12"
Ca. 18th century antique Thai bronze Buddha head in Chiang Saen style.
The head is sensitively rendered with a softly contoured face and serene contemplative expression, with arched eyebrows bowed high towards the forehead, set above heavy-lidded eyes, rounded face, well-shaped nose, bow-shaped lips with a welcoming smile, and prominent elongated ears. The head is covered in thorn-like hair curls, surmounted by a Chiang Saen style 'Ushnisha'.
The surface has a beautifully aged patina. The weight of the sculpture is higher than might be expected, due to the thickness of the bronze casting.
The Buddha is mounted on a metal and wood base (later).
