About the Item

17thC or earlier Northern Thai quartz crystal reliquary from the Hot District south of Chiang Mai- a large and fine example excavated from a temple site before the building of a reservoir several decades ago. Few authentic pieces of this size and type seem to exist. There an extremely similar smaller deer (not as fine) with a gold cap excavated from the same site in the Chiang Mai Museum (1960's-locals were permitted to dig before the valley was flooded.) I've seen a few other related examples. Very clear piece of quartz-especially for carved objects from Thailand from this period. Museum worthy. 5920 Special. 2.75 inches tall (4.25 inches on custom stand), 3.25 inches long.
