Description

This antique bronze Crowned Buddha statue from Burma, dating back to the 18th century, exemplifies the artistry and spiritual heritage of the Shan (Tai Yai) style. Standing at 26.6 cm and weighing 1.03 kg, the statue is adorned with traces of original 24-karat gilding, reflecting the reverence for divine figures in Burmese culture.

The intricate details of the statue showcase the skilled craftsmanship prevalent in ancient Myanmar, where Buddhism played a central role in societal development. The Buddha is depicted in a seated position, embodying tranquility and enlightenment. Originally painted with gold in the 20th century, some of this layer has been partially removed, revealing the original patina that adds to its historical authenticity and charm.

The Shan style is noted for its elongated features and ornate headdress, symbolizing spiritual royalty. This statue possibly represents the Bhumisparsha mudra, a gesture in which the Buddha touches the earth, a representation of illumination and grounding.

As a significant artifact from Myanmar, this statue not only serves as a decorative piece but also as a testament to the rich lineage of Buddhist art and its lasting influence in the region's cultural tapestry. This item is offered in its current condition, with potential for restoration to enhance its beauty.
