Product description
Important Antique Lanna Buddha Statue – 18th/19th Century This impressive sculpture is a prime example of Lanna art from Northern Thailand. Weighing 2 kilograms and featuring a refined finish in fire-gilded bronze, this object represents the spiritual and artistic zenith of the 18th and 19th centuries. Spiritual Significance: The Serenity of the North The Lanna style is distinguished by a unique combination of strength and elegance: Dhyana Mudra: The hands resting in the lap symbolize the deep state of meditation (Samadhi). This gesture helps the owner create an environment of concentration and mental peace. Symbolism of Gold and Red: The red lacquer layer (beneath the gilding) traditionally represents protection and vitality, while the golden top layer reflects the immortal nature of the Buddha-mind. Museum-Quality Appearance: The serene facial features and the lotus bud ushnisha are classic characteristics that give this statue a regal presence in any interior. Forensic Audit & Technical Dossier At we base our expertise on physical verification: Casting & Weight: At 2 kg for a height of 26 cm, this is a very solid bronze casting. The interior reveals the authentic, petrified casting core, a crucial characteristic for dating and authenticity. Surface Analysis: The organic wear of the fire gilding reveals the underlying red lacquer and the deep patina of the bronze. Under UV light and microscopy, the surface exhibits natural craquelure that is impossible to replicate in modern times.
