Description from the seller
Shakyamuni Buddha head made of copper alloy in the 20th century, originating from Thailand.
The head originally formed part of a larger Buddha sculpture. The piece is hollow and at the lower part of the neck there is an irregular edge corresponding to where it separated from the rest of the figure. Subsequently, the head was reused as an independent element and mounted on a circular metal base.
The surface shows golden and dark tones, with patina especially visible between the curls of the hair and around the facial features. Based on its stylistic characteristics, it is related to the Buddhist sculptural tradition of Thailand.
