Subject:Old bronze thai buddha? Need ID help
Posted By: Peter Wed, Aug 01, 2018 IP: 190.194.212.123 I'd appreciate any help identifying this buddha, thanks |

Posted By: Gregory A Schwartz Thu, Aug 02, 2018 This looks Laotian. Lots of SE Asian bronze fakes, but this looks authentic, circa turn of the 20th century, around 1900 or thereabouts. |

Posted By: Peter Thu, Aug 02, 2018 Thanks Gregory, thought it was older. What makes you think this looks authentic? The base? |

Posted By: Gregory A Schwartz Mon, Aug 06, 2018 The patina looks right. The bottom of the base appropriate wear, which fakes always seem to never have. |

Posted By: Peter Sun, Aug 19, 2018 Thanks again. Assuming this is a genuine buddha, would it be a valuable piece? |
