Thai wooden Buddha panel
Description
This rare and authentic Thai wooden Buddha panel dates to the late Ayutthaya period (circa 1680–1720). Measuring H 50 x W 25 cm and weighing approximately 2 kg, it is finely hand-carved from hardwood with remnants of the original polychromy and gold leaf still visible.
The panel depicts Buddha Shakyamuni seated in Padmasana (full lotus) within a delicately carved flame-shaped niche. The elongated earlobes, the high flame ushnisha, and the flowing diagonal robe style are consistent with late Ayutthaya-period iconography, reflecting spiritual tranquility and divine presence.
