Finely carved Mandalay Buddha from Burma, sculpted in limestone and dating to the 20th century.
The figure presents a calm and classical expression, with soft contours and a harmonious face characteristic of the Mandalay tradition. Notably, the piece features an engraved inscription, adding depth and historical interest.
The throne stands out with its rare blue tones, offering a subtle yet striking contrast to the light limestone and enhancing the decorative appeal.
At 27 cm in height, the Buddha has a balanced and approachable size and remains in very well-preserved condition.
An atmospheric and less common example, where the choice of material and color details make it particularly appealing to collectors.
