Large Kinaree Statuette, Devotional Devi in Carved Wood – Thailand, Burma, 19th-Century Asian Art, Hinduism, Buddhism

Height: 100 cm
Weight: 7 kg

Devotional figure in wood, depicted standing and dressed in a traditional costume with folded front panels held by a belt.
She wears a winged tiara and holds her hands in Anjali Mudra, the gesture of offering and veneration.

In Burma, secondary figurines like this one are called devi and are placed in front of Buddhist altars, pagodas, stupas, or shrines. They originally represented lower-ranking Hindu deities. In Burma, they were later integrated into the symbolic repertoire of Burmese Theravāda Buddhism.

Carved from a heavy, hard, light-colored wood (likely teak), the figure wears sumptuous court attire and a tall winged crown. Her hands are joined in front of her chest, and she stands on a round base.
Traces of the original underlayer of gesso and red pigment are still visible.
