17thC Standing Burma Bronze Buddha-Rare Royal Arakan Type, Highly Detailed. In all my years of collecting, I've come across very few of this type. It has a strong influence from the pagan Era, which was a few hundred years earlier. His face shows real character. I'm not sure if he was buried for a significant. Of time or how he came by his strong patina. Someone removed part of the patina in places so that you could see the fine detail underneath. I believe based on other bronzes I have owned that with care the rest or most of the thick patina could be removed though I cannot guarantee this. Height can be seen in photo with ruler. ( 5.45lbs / 2.470kg )
