Fantastic thickly cast silver or silver alloy 16-/18th C Laos folk style Buddha. Very expressive, with a wonderful detailed base, he is folk art at its best. The style is 16thC, but Laos folk Buddhas emulated styles for long periods of time so he may be later. He is very old for sure, and of very high silver content. 4-3/8" tall, and extremely heavy for his size.
