A Thai gilt metal standing Buddha, 20th century, standing in Abhaya Mudra, standing on a flowering lotus upon three stepped tiers, all with leaf moulded decoration, height 101.5 cm. CONDITION REPORT: The finial to the headdress is removable and has a slight bend to the tip of which the decorative gilding is missing. There are small sections where the gilding is rubbed, particularly beneath the left eye, the right hand, small patches on the cape and on the stepped plinth. Decorations to the front of the figure are inlaid with small glass roundels. There is a small patch of gilding missing to the rear of the cape. There is a small section to the base of the platform that has been poorly cast and is now missing but this does not affect the stability of it in any form. The right hand side of the base has small cracks but we believe these to have been produced when made. It is given as 20th Century, it is most likely to be mid 20th Century as opposed to early.
