Wonderful and very well cast and sculpted early. Classic Northern Thai Buddha Head from the Chiang Sen Kingdom. This piece was obviously buried for a long time. The patina is very complex, with remains of gilding and lacquer, as well as deeply encrusted earth. The original finial was replaced centuries ago with a crystal or flourite carved finial. Altogether an impressive piece. It is thickly cast.Head is 6.5" tall, but on its custom base the total height is 8.25".
