This is an excellent 18/19th century Shan style sold cast walking Buddha or Bodhisattva with a swan. The finesse in the sculpting is far greater than on most Shan bronzes. The type of casting is not typical for Shan Buddhas. I believe that there is a story from the Buddhas life that this depicts. Very uncommon piece. Three and 3/8 inches tall.
