Early 20th Century Thai Goddess Polychrome Statue
-
Description
Presenting a gorgeous early 20th century Thai goddess polychrome statue.
Made in Thailand in the early 20th century, circa 1920.
Hand carved wooden statue which has been hand painted (polychromed) all-over. The headdress is gilded, as are parts of the costume and it has inset jeweled pieces of different colored glass all-over the costume and headdress.
The Goddess is holding and squeezing her braided long hair and the quality of her costume signifies her significance or status. She is in fact a representation of Phra Mae Thorani, The Goddess of Love.
Acquired by a New York Private Collector in the mid-20th century on a visit to Thailand. -
