18th Century Sukhothai Mounted Bronze Buddha Head

Ca. 18th century Sukhothai style mounted Buddha Head, from Thailand.
The head is sensitively rendered with a softly contoured face and serene contemplative expression, with arched eyebrows bowed high towards the forehead, set above heavy-lidded eyes, a narrow well-shaped nose, bow-shaped lips with an insipid smile, and prominent elongated ears. The head is covered in thorn-like hair curls, surmounted by a flamed 'Ushnisha', in the Sukhothai tradition.
The surface has a beautifully aged patina. The Buddha is mounted on a metal and wood base (later). Please contact us for high resolution images of the piece.
