Bronze Buddha figure, about the 16th century, with a seated devout pose on an openwork cylindrical base, height 11.3 cm, width 6.2 cm, depth 4.7 cm, weight 276 g, origin Myanmar and provenance from a private collection, authenticated as original.
Description from the seller
A characterful bronze Buddha figurine, probably originating from India (collected within a single cohesive private collection), dating to circa the 16th century.
The statue shows a stylized, seated figure in a devotional posture with the hands pressed together before the body. The expressive facial expression and the pointed, layered headpiece give the whole piece a spiritual and ritual appearance. In the hand the figure holds a leaf- or fan-shaped element, possibly with symbolic meaning.
The figure is placed on an open-worked, cylindrical pedestal, which provides a pleasing visual balance and an artisanal character. The warm, dark-brown patina with subtle green oxidation underscores the age and authenticity of the object. Visible wear and signs of use contribute to the charm.
