Myanmar Pagoda Relic - 18th-19th Century Buddha. Height 24cm. Base Width 18.5cm. Weight 2286g

A Buddha statue from a collapsed pagoda in the Mandalay region of Myanmar. Buddha in the Earth-touching mudra. Estimated to be from the 18th-19th century (the antique dealer who brought it to Taiwan believed it to be even older...). Having handled artifacts for many years... it's better to conservatively estimate an older date. The sealed base is intact. Bronze alloy. Overall height 24cm. Base width 18.5cm. Weight 2286g. The exterior has been cleaned. Hard, cement-like soil adhering to the bronze Buddha has been removed. 38500-113.08.06
