A stunning seated Shan Buddha with the Pala-Mon style (touching the earth)  hands gesture.

 

Acquired from an antique dealer in Kona Hawaii. This dealer acquired it from K.B. Art in Bangkok Thailand in mid-2005 . .  a reputable dealer and appraiser during that time period.

 

The overall condition is very good.  Some deterioration on the lower half.  There are two apparent cracks across the front and one across the back.  The headdress knot can be removed.    The base is a low profile stand with a small chip on the rear side.

 

International shipping is not available for this piece.
