19thC Burmese Bronze Buddha. This type was typically put together with other related bronze figures to tell a story from the Buddha's life.

In the morning, he touched the earth as his witness that he had not succumbed to the temptations of Mara). 5.25" tall, bottom measures 2-7/8" x 2.25". Very nice face. Good example of his type,
