This is a fine 19thC Laos Bronze Buddha. It has all of the qualities you want to see in a high quality antique Buddha- a serene and beautiful face, a fine patina, good sculpting, well done casting and finishing, excellent condition, and good size. It sits a bit over 13 inches high by a bit over 7.5inches wide by 6 inches deep. The dimensions are a bit deceiving on this piece however due to the extremely short base, the very short finial, and the shape of the Buddha's body. The actual Buddha is closer to the size of most typical Thai and Laos Buddhas which sit 16-18 inches tall.
