About the Item

A superb 13th-century Thai Buddha in the transitional Lopburi style, marking the evolution from Khmer to early Thai Buddhist art. This rare and delicately modeled figure is very thinly cast, a characteristic linked to the scarcity of bronze during this and the subsequent Utong period, when metal was so limited that bases, including that of this Buddha, were often removed and repurposed for new castings. Despite visible wear, minor casting flaws, and signs of age, the serene expression and refined sculpting of the face clearly reveal the artistry and spiritual depth of the period. The rich, mottled patina, possibly resulting from exposure to fire, adds to its authenticity and historical character. The figure measures 5.25 inches tall, or 7.25 inches including its modern base—a truly special and evocative piece of early Thai art.
