About the Item

Superb 16th Century Northern Thai Bronze Buddha An exceptional Northern Thai bronze Buddha dating to the 16th century, displaying sculptural and casting quality far superior to the vast majority of examples from this period. The figure is beautifully modeled with a deeply serene, meditative expression, refined facial contours, and an elegant flame-shaped ushnisha. The Buddha sits in bhumisparsha mudra upon a multi-tiered lotus base with pierced lower panels, all cast with remarkable precision and balance. Standing 10 1/8 inches tall (12 1/8 inches including the custom stand), this is a commanding and visually harmonious work with a complex, naturally developed patina. Evidence of earlier cleaning—likely done reverentially as part of devotional practice—adds to its long history and spiritual presence. A truly classic example from Northern Thailand, distinguished by its superior artistry, strong proportions, and elevated aesthetic quality—belonging to an entirely higher class than most bronzes of its type.
