DESCRIPTION:

WOW!!! Another beauty coming from the vaults Celuk, Indonesia. This is an antique bronze buddha in a prayer position I have never seen before. Buddha is sitting on a lotus or something similar. Her legs are dangling to a point where they rest on another lotus stand. One hand is at waist level with the palm open and facing the heavens. The other hand is located slightly above the right knee with an open palm facing down. Unfortunately I do not know the significance of this. If someone knows, PLEASE fill me in. The whole piece is very detailed and has excellent craftmanship. No matter what the age, it is in excellent condition.

Purchased in Celuk, Indonesia within past 5 years. Vender who sold piece happened to have an old collection of bronze pieces in a back storage area in his shop. This piece was not on display - it was part of the collection from the previous owner. Apparently the artist's dad had purchased the shop 30 years ago and the shop came with these as part of the deal. Now the shop sells Keris, or swords, so these were just collecting dust. The artist was not clear on their exact age, but customers in my store seem to think it is a true antique. Meaning at least 100 years old. I am not an expert and can not verify the age. I can not make any guarantees on it's age.

Please see the photos for more details.
