18TH C. TEMPLE SUKHOTHAI BUDDHA

I guarantee that this piece is a minimum of two hundred years old, and may even date all the way back to the Sukhothai period (five hundred years).   I cannot verify that,  however, without metallurgic testing.  The Sukhothai style is the most admired and imitated in Thailand because of its grace and proportions.  This was a devotional buddha, and still has traces of gilt on it.  It has a modest, serene face, and beautiful slender proportions.  It stands 24 inches high, with a complex brown/green patina with areas of red cuprite.  Condition is excellent.  A classic beautiful Sukhothai.
