Burmese Shan style Buddha, the slender figure with a triangular face and broad forehead, arching eyebrows, elongated ears, and small hair curls covering a low ushnisha that is surmounted by a bud-shaped finial. The red lacquered wood figure with gilt highlights is seated on a waisted lotus throne plinth with relief deer carvings in bhurmisparsa mudra (“calling the earth to witness”). A plain flap of clothing is over the left shoulder. Separate wood stand. 14" high. 18th to 19th century. Very good overall condition with typical wear for its age. From a Phoenix, Arizona collection.
