Antique Thai Bronze Buddha Statue – Abhaya Mudra – 31 cm

The Timeless Power of Thai Bronze

This authentic Thai bronze Buddha statue, with a height of 31 cm and a weight of 1.2 kg, is a beautiful example of religious art from Southeast Asia. The Buddha is depicted in the classic standing posture, with the right hand raised in the Abhaya Mudra. This gesture symbolizes the expulsion of fear and the offering of spiritual protection to the environment in which the statue is placed.

Authentic Signs of Wear and Patina

What makes this particular piece unique is the weathered state of the bronze. The surface displays a rich, natural patina and characteristic wear marks that bear witness to decades of devotion. On the left side of the robe, authentic casting marks and small openings in the bronze are visible, which are inherent to the traditional 'lost wax' method (cire perdue). To the connoisseur, these imperfections are proof of a manual and historical production process.

Spiritual Meaning: Fearlessness

This statue is ideally suited for the intentions 'Fearlessness' and 'Inner Strength'. The serene facial expression and the stable posture on the stepped pedestal radiate an imperturbable calm. Remnants of the original casting core are still visible on the underside, contributing to the historical integrity and collector's value of this object.
