An elegant 20th-century Thai bronze standing Buddha depicting the Abhayamudra gesture, with the right hand raised and palm facing outward in a gesture traditionally associated with reassurance, protection and fearlessness. The figure reflects the refined aesthetic of the Ayutthaya period style, drawing inspiration from one of Thailand's most celebrated artistic traditions.
Beautifully cast in bronze, the Buddha displays graceful proportions, serene expression and the quiet dignity characteristic of Thai Buddhist sculpture. Elevated on a metal support and plinth, the figure has a strong vertical presence, making it equally suited to display as a devotional-inspired artwork or as a sculptural feature within a carefully curated interior.
The Ayutthaya style is recognised for its elegant forms, refined modelling and balanced compositions, qualities that continue to influence Thai bronze sculpture. This later 20th-century example celebrates that enduring artistic tradition through its craftsmanship and spiritual symbolism.
Presented in good condition with surface patina consistent with age and material.
