Description
Ancient Southeast Asia, Thailand, Ban Chiang, ca. 300 BCE.

An attractive example of ancient Ban Chiang artistry! Size: 10.875" W x 9.875" H (27.6 cm x 25.1 cm)

Provenance: ex-Ashland University Museum, Ashland, Ohio, USA, donated to Ashland University between July 1994 to December 1998
