Lacquered And Gilded Wood Buddha Disciple - Burma - Mandalay Style - Late 19th Century

Elegant and rare red and gold lacquered wood sculpture depicting a disciple of Buddha in devotion, his expression one of great serenity

A very fine Burmese work from the late 19th century (Mandalay style), adorned with drapery inlaid with original mirrors and glass

The piece displays a superb patina from use, allowing the red lacquer to show through the gilding at the points of contact

Note: a slight natural shrinkage crack in the wood is visible at the knee crease, without affecting its solidity

Overall, in good condition, with a sound, original raw wood base. Height: 20 cm
