Bronze Mon Buddha 18th Century
A Mon Buddha from 18th century Burma has the thick facial features and very high finial that identify Mon images from the Ava period. The waisted throne is edged with geometric decorations typical of Mon images of the era. We purchased this figure about 10 years ago in a lot that included, we thought, only Shan Buddha figures of later vintage. This one is clearly from an earlier period and, although there is some overlap between the Shan and Mon sub-states in the characteristics of their Buddha images, the Mon features of this Buddha are dominant. This fine piece is in excellent condition. Dimensions: height 7 ¼” (18.5 cm), width 4” (10.2 cm), depth 2” (5.1 cm).
