15thC Indonesian Bronze "Sultan Mangkoenagoro" or "Noble Boy" There are quite several examples that appear to have been made in the 14 and 15th centuries during the Majapahit era and shortly after. Some of them are a little fancier than this one in that they have some of the standard ornamentations that Majapahit bronze sculptures typically have. Others are quite similar to this one, Such as the already sold item 7448 on my website, including the remarkable #9578 on my website, which is still for sale. That one and this one are very similar in style. Compare the hairstyle, body shape, face, or any other aspect of these two sculptures and you'll see how remarkably close they are in styling. . I also saw a few that were sitting on the ground with their legs to the side. Most of the examples I encountered had bells on them, and it was said that this made them easier to find. This one is heavy for his size as he is solid cast.( 5.5"H x 2.75"W x 1.5"D ) - 1.225kg / 2.70 lbs. Domestic packing and shipping are included. International shipping $50.
