Antique Bronze Buddha Head
Antique Bronze Buddha Head
Pocket-sized votive fragment of a Buddha head in the Lopburi/Khmer style
It features a multi-tiered conical crown (mukuta), a prominent brow ridge, elongated earlobes adorned with decorative pendants, as well as a relatively square jaw and a serene, downward-cast gaze.
Lopburi was a major regional center strongly influenced by the Khmer Empire during the Angkor period. The art of this era blends traditional Mon-Dvaravati aesthetics with distinct Khmer styles.
The dark patina, mottled with green and brown, that covers the metal surface is characteristic of ancient Southeast Asian bronzes that have undergone long-term oxidation.
The head is mounted on a wooden base.
The head measures 6 cm wide, 5 cm deep, and 10 cm high.
The base measures 4.5 cm by 4.5 cm and is 5 cm high.
Total weight: 277 grams.
