Tall Southeast Asian Bronze Buddha

Found in Thailand, this Antique Bronze Buddha Statue is a seated devotional figure with a dark aged surface, serene expression, and visible oxidation.

The figure is shown in Bhumisparsha Mudra, often understood as the earth-touching gesture associated with the Buddha’s moment of enlightenment. Cast in bronze, the statue features a calm face, elongated earlobes, detailed hair and head form, and a seated posture that gives the piece a grounded, contemplative presence.
