This exquisite 16th-century bronze Thai Buddha statue exemplifies the artistry of the Chiang Sean period, a time marked by significant cultural and artistic development in Thailand. Standing at 41.3 cm tall, this statue not only showcases exceptional craftsmanship but also carries deep historical significance.

The Bhumisparsha mudra, which is depicted in this statue, symbolizes the moment of enlightenment, where the Buddha calls the Earth to witness his attainment of Nirvana. This gesture reflects the core tenets of Buddhism, emphasizing mindfulness and spiritual awakening.

Originating from Thailand, this statue connects to a rich history spanning centuries, where Buddhist art played a vital role in cultural expression and spiritual practice. The meticulous detailing of the statue—along with its harmonious proportions—demonstrates the high level of skill possessed by artisans of the period.

Acquired from a private collector in Brussels in 2022, this piece weighs 6.64 kg and measures 23 cm in width and 14.6 cm in depth, ensuring its presence is both impactful and profound. The statue serves not only as a decorative element but also as a source of inspiration, embodying the profound spiritual legacy of Buddhism in Thailand.
