The Remover of Obstacles . .  a rare and old Rattanakosin Bronze Ganesh typical of the style with finely jeweled trappings and throne.  Extremely well cast and detailed.

Gold gilt with a  light lacquer coating was applied to protect the bronze.  No pitting or metal degradation.

I acquired this piece from a highly respected dealer / gallery owner in Bangkok in 2000.  Circa mid- to late- 1800’s.  In very fine condition.   10.5″ tall x 7.75″ at widest point.  For the Serious Collector.
