Based on style, proportions, and construction, it can be convincingly placed within the Thai Sukhothai–Ayutthaya tradition, dated to circa 1500–1650.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe slender build, soft modeling of the chest and shoulders, and the restrained, serene facial expression suggest a transitional style between late Sukhothai and early Ayutthaya. The statue rests on a carefully crafted double lotus base with a central textile-like panel on the front, a feature typical of Thai temple statues from this period.\n\nExamination of the surface and under UV light revealed remnants of original fire gilding in sheltered zones. This confirms that the statue was originally (partially) gilded, as is customary for important temple statues, and that the gold has largely disappeared due to centuries of ritual use.\n\nThe underside is open and shows clear traces of the traditional lost-wax casting technique. Visible core plugs and a partially preserved core pin confirm a manual, pre-industrial production process. Additionally, remnants of an old organic seal, consisting of resinous and wax-like material, are visible on the inside. This seal was used to close structural openings and is part of the original temple practice. The material is fully integrated into the natural oxidation layer and confirms long-term, continuous use in a tropical climate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe interior shows heavy natural oxidation with mineralization and salt deposition, incompatible with modern manufacturing or subsequent restoration.

The detailed decorations and glass inlay are characteristic of the refined 19th-century Burmese court style.\n\n\n\nUnique feature: The eyes of this statue are inlaid with authentic organic material (ivory) for the whites of the eyes and black thayo lacquer for the pupils. Under UV analysis, the inlay exhibits the characteristic blue-white fluorescence that confirms its age and authenticity. The hand-hollowed base underscores the artisanal, antique character of this 7.2 kg object. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nA museum-quality object for the serious collector of Asian art, bringing both aesthetic power and historical value to an interior.\n\n\u003chr style=\"border: 0; border-top: 1px solid #b08d57; margin: 20px 0;\"\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mandalay \/ Jambupati (Royal)\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003ePeriod:\u003c\/strong\u003e Late 19th century – early 20th century\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Burma (Myanmar)\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eMudra:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bhumisparsha (Touching the earth)\n\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nHeight: 57 cm | Width: 43.5 cm | Weight: 7.2 kg\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"1stbuddha","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57084769435979,"sku":"532","price":1250.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1012\/6170\/5547\/files\/antieke-birmese-boeddha-hout-verguld-glasinleg-uniek-collectiestuk.jpg?v=1776780387"},{"product_id":"antique-thai-buddha-rama-v-period-fire-gilded-bronze-54cm","title":"Antique Thai Buddha – Rama V Period – Fire-Gilded Bronze (54cm)","description":"\u003cdiv style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: #fff; background-color: #1a2e1a; padding: 25px; border: 1px solid #b08d57; border-radius: 5px;\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"color: #b08d57; border-bottom: 2px solid #b08d57; padding-bottom: 10px; text-transform: uppercase;\"\u003e\n\nThai Buddha – Rama V Sukhothai Revival\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"font-style: italic; margin-bottom: 20px;\"\u003e\nAn exceptionally powerful and monumental altarpiece of the Bhumisparsha Buddha.\n\nCrafted during the renowned Rama V period, executed in the refined Sukhothai style with rare fire gilding. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 style=\"color: #b08d57;\"\u003eProduct details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003ctable style=\"width: 100%; color: #fff; border-collapse: collapse;\"\u003e\n    \u003ctr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(176,141,87,0.3);\"\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; font-weight: bold; color: #b08d57; width: 30%;\"\u003ePeriod:\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px;\"\u003eapprox. 1900 – 1920 (Rama V)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(176,141,87,0.3);\"\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; font-weight: bold; color: #b08d57;\"\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px;\"\u003eOrmolu Bronze ($Au+Hg$ \/ Mercury Amalgam)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(176,141,87,0.3);\"\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; font-weight: bold; color: #b08d57;\"\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px;\"\u003eH 54 cm | W 42 cm | 7.2 kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(176,141,87,0.3);\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; font-weight: bold; color: #b08d57;\"\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px;\"\u003ePrivate collection Netherlands (Residential custody \u003e 60 years)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #b08d57; margin-top: 25px;\"\u003eExpertise \u0026 Audit\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 15px;\"\u003e\nThis object has been subjected to a full forensic inspection.

With a height of 46 cm and a weight of approximately 5.2 kg, the statue has a powerful, serene presence. The combination of fire-gilded bronze, inlaid eyes, and a deep red-gold patina gives the object an appearance that immediately surpasses standard Buddha statues.\n\nThe Buddha is depicted in Bhumisparsha Mudra, the posture in which the earth is touched as a witness to enlightenment. This mudra represents steadfastness, spiritual strength, and overcoming doubt.\n\nThe inlaid eyes are particularly noteworthy, having been examined under UV light and microscopy. The structure and fluorescence support identification as ancient ivory, which significantly enhances the quality and rarity of the statue.\n\nThe surface shows clear remnants of fire-gilding, with gold bonding in the deeper zones and a warm red-gold appearance due to old oxidation of the copper alloy. The presence of cuprite and malachite-like mineralization gives the surface extra depth and character.\n\nThe open underside shows an old casting core with sand, clay, and organic residues, consistent with traditional pre-industrial lost-wax casting. Together with the patina, construction, and material composition, this supports a placement within the Lan Xang tradition of Laos and Northern Thailand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA rare and important Buddha statue for the serious collector of Southeast Asian art, suitable as a centerpiece within a private collection, gallery interior, or ritual space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color:#8a6a24;font-size:20px;margin-top:26px;\"\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;margin-top:10px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #eee;padding:8px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRepresentation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #eee;padding:8px 0;\"\u003eBuddha in Bhumisparsha Mudra\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #eee;padding:8px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #eee;padding:8px 0;\"\u003eLan Xang, Laos \/ Northern Thailand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #eee;padding:8px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePeriod\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #eee;padding:8px 0;\"\u003e18th – 19th century\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #eee;padding:8px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #eee;padding:8px 0;\"\u003eFire-gilded bronze with inlaid ivory eyes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #eee;padding:8px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTechnique\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #eee;padding:8px 0;\"\u003eTraditional lost-wax casting with open base\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #eee;padding:8px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePatina\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #eee;padding:8px 0;\"\u003eRed-gold cuprite patina with malachite-like oxidation\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #eee;padding:8px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #eee;padding:8px 0;\"\u003e46 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #eee;padding:8px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #eee;padding:8px 0;\"\u003eapprox. 5.2 kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 0;\"\u003eFire gilding, old casting core, inlaid eyes, UV reaction, deep mineralization and Lan Xang style\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"1stbuddha","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57155780116811,"sku":"202","price":24500.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1012\/6170\/5547\/files\/antieke-lan-xang-boeddha-ivoor-vuurverguld.jpg?v=1777468854"},{"product_id":"groot-bronzen-thaise-buddha-bhumisparsha-mudra-ayutthaya-stijl-40-cm-8-kg","title":"Large Bronze Thai Buddha – Bhumisparsha Mudra – Ayutthaya Style – 40 cm (8 kg)","description":"\u003cdiv style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: #fff; background-color: #1a2e1a; padding: 25px; border: 1px solid #b08d57; border-radius: 5px;\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"color: #b08d57; border-bottom: 2px solid #b08d57; padding-bottom: 10px; text-transform: uppercase;\"\u003eLarge Bronze Thai Buddha – Bhumisparsha Mudra (2nd half of 20th century)\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-style: italic; margin-bottom: 20px;\"\u003eAn imposing and massive cast bronze Buddha, 40 cm high.

Think of a library, office, entrance, practice room, meditative space, or a powerful spiritual interior.\n\n\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:16px; margin:0 0 18px 0;\"\u003e\nThe lion beneath Wenshu Pusa represents courage, protection, and the victorious power of insight. Together, they form a strong symbol for mental clarity, spiritual focus, and the ability to see through illusion and uncertainty. This makes the image not only impressive as an art object but also meaningful as a daily symbol of wisdom and inner direction. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:16px; margin:0 0 18px 0;\"\u003e\nThe statue is made of heavy bronze and, due to its height of nearly one meter and a weight of approximately 60–80 kg, has an exceptionally strong presence. Stylistically, it aligns with Chinese Buddhist art from the Late Qing to the early Republic period. Its well-known Dutch gallery provenance, where the statue was already on display in an antique gallery in Bergen op Zoom in the 1970s, reinforces the historical character and collector's value of this object. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv style=\"border-top:1px solid #b08d57; border-bottom:1px solid #b08d57; padding:18px 0; margin:24px 0;\"\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 8px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"color:#b08d57;\"\u003eDepiction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wenshu Pusa \/ Manjushri on lion\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 8px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"color:#b08d57;\"\u003eMeaning:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wisdom, insight, study, clear thinking, protection and spiritual focus\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 8px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"color:#b08d57;\"\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Heavy cast bronze\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 8px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"color:#b08d57;\"\u003eOrigin \/ style:\u003c\/strong\u003e China, Late Qing \/ Early Republic style\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 8px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"color:#b08d57;\"\u003eDating:\u003c\/strong\u003e Probably late 19th to early 20th century\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 8px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"color:#b08d57;\"\u003eProvenance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Old Dutch gallery provenance, Bergen op Zoom, present since the 1970s\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 8px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"color:#b08d57;\"\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e H 94.5 × W 53 cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"color:#b08d57;\"\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approx. 60–80 kg\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:16px; margin:0;\"\u003e\n\nAn exceptionally monumental and meaningful bronze Wenshu Pusa statue for those seeking a powerful object related to wisdom, protection, mental clarity, and spiritual presence.\n\n\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"1stbuddha","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57326840807755,"sku":null,"price":4975.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1012\/6170\/5547\/files\/monumentaal-bronzen-wenshu-pusa-beeld.jpg?v=1778918982"},{"product_id":"monumentaal-verguld-tibetaans-shakyamuni-boeddha-beeld-monnikenwerk-abhaya-mudra-met-handgegraveerd-kasaya-gewaad","title":"Monumental Gilded Tibetan Shakyamuni Buddha Statue – Monastic Work – Abhaya Mudra with Hand-Engraved Kasaya Robe","description":"\u003cdiv style=\"background:#ffffff; color:#2b2b2b; padding:32px; border:2px solid #b08d57; border-radius:8px; font-family:Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height:1.75;\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"color:#b08d57; font-size:26px; margin:0 0 18px 0; font-weight:normal; letter-spacing:0.5px;\"\u003eMonumental Gilded Tibetan Shakyamuni Buddha Statue – Abhaya Mudra\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:16px; margin:0 0 18px 0;\"\u003e\nThis monumental gilded Shakyamuni Buddha statue is a powerful Tibetan \/ Himalayan monastic object with an exceptional presence.

While Ganesha is known as the remover of obstacles, Lakshmi represents prosperity, happiness, and abundance. Saraswati stands for knowledge, creativity, and personal development. Together, they form a spiritual whole that is traditionally placed in homes, businesses, practice rooms, and home altars.\n\n\u003cp\u003e\n\nThis statue is often chosen by people taking a new step in their lives, starting a business, beginning studies, or consciously wishing to bring more balance, success, and positive energy into their surroundings. Precisely for this reason, this combination has been one of the most beloved representations within Hinduism for generations.\n\n\u003cp\u003e\n\nWhat stands out immediately is the exceptional weight. At approximately 3 kilograms, this compact statue feels remarkably heavy and solid. The warm golden appearance is enhanced by natural oxidation in the deeper parts of the relief. Furthermore, under magnification, hand-applied punch decorations are visible, a detail that further emphasizes the artisanal character of the statue.\n\n\u003cp\u003e\n\nThe three deities are placed together on a single pedestal, meaning the statue not only carries spiritual significance but also possesses a strong visual presence.
