Item Details
Description
This antique votive figure, standing 8 cm tall and 2.5 cm wide (3.15 inches by 0.98 inches), is a remarkable example of bronze craftsmanship from the 15th to 17th centuries. The posture of the idol, with its upright stance and formal attire, indicates it may represent a historical or mythological figure of authority, possibly a guardian deity. Such figures are emblematic of the martial valor celebrated in many Asian cultures during this period. The style and attire suggest the figure could be from the Southeast Asian region, aligning with the artistic expressions found in historical kingdoms such as the Khmer Empire or the Lanna Kingdom. The robust stance and elaborate headgear point to a figure of significant stature, intended to invoke protection and strength. This piece would have served not only as a devotional object but also as a symbolic guardian in a household or sacred space.
