Item id: 8139

Fascinating mystery. Traces of gilding. The previous owner, a long-time high-end collector/dealer, had this TL tested by Oxford, hoping it was very early (it turned out to be 19thC (though he cannot find the TL test). The working hypothesis is that it is either Yunnan emulating the Yunnan Dali style of the 11/12thC or that it may be Korean. Great study piece. Sits 2.75 inches tall. Starting bid reduced. Look at the finesse in the fingers-how the thumb crosses over the other fingers on the left hand and the middle finger crosses over the other fingers on the right hand. The quality of hands is often used as an indicator of the overall quality of a Buddha image. Domestic shipping is included on this item, and international shipping is $50, including packing and insurance.
