About the Item

An authentic Pyu or other early Burmese Buddha tablet. Over 1000 years old (and possibly closer to 12 or 14 hundred years old), this type was typically made in large numbers and buried under stupas and temple sites to amplify spiritual energy and to give to spiritual pilgrims. Years ago, there were many of these in the marketplace, but the authentic ones have mostly disappeared. I bought a group of early tablets about 20 years ago and kept a few of the best examples for myself, of which this is one of the last. The size is 3.25 inches tall. Most of the others I purchased were found in multiples- only 3 of this type were found of which this was the best example. Even after all these years and with the significant wear, the face manages to shine through when held at the right angle. A true collector's piece and a true Buddhist relic. Domestic shipping with careful packing and insurance is included. International shipping to anywhere in the world is $50. ( 3.5"H x 2.5"W x .75"D ) - 105g.

11thC Bronze Buddha- Pyu/Pagan Burma Rare, Powerful Ancient- TL Test! - 8439
Located in Ukiah, CA
One of my all-time favorites out of more than 10 thousand of Buddhas I have owned over the past 3+ decades. I believe this is a transitional piece that is late-Pyu and contemporary with the Pagan period, although I have never seen another like it. See attached Oxford TL test which dates it at up to 800 years old. YES- it really IS that green-the photos are accurate. Probably the ones that show the color the closest are the one with the ruler in it, and the two showing the recently made custom base. The two with the base were taken with a different camera. It is extremely large for its type. I've had several experts who have been amazed by this piece, as they have studied and collected Burmese sculpture...
