Subject:Thai standing buddha/ID help needed
Posted By: Peter Wed, Aug 01, 2018 IP: 190.194.212.123
Seems to be wood covered with a gold layer. About 37.5 in/95cm tall (without the base). Thanks

You say it seems to be wood but it looks like bronze in these pictures. There seems to be alot of repairs done to the head / face which was re-painted and the ushnisha is missing. This looks like a Rattanakosin of not too great age. However, it would still be good to have a look at the base of the stand

Thanks, yes I think it's wood, but I'm not sure, could be bronze. I never tilted the statue to look at the base since I fear I might break it or damage it.
