Groot paar tempelwachters - Verguld brons - Thailand - Tweede helft 20e eeuw
These Temple Guardians (Teppanom) are mythological angels and part of the Buddhist tradition in Thailand.
It is thought that these angels descended from heaven
to pay their respects when the Buddha reached enlightenment and to celebrate such a monumental event. The detailed filigree of the traditional costumes and lovely proportion make them particularly fine examples of Teppanom statues. The male and female twin angels are kneeling in the respectful Thai greeting, palms together in a wai. In Thailand they are seen in royal palaces and at the entrance to Buddhist temples
They are both in excellent condition and have a combined weight of around 5000 grams
