Acquired  from a reputable antique dealer in Thailand during one of his visits to the United States in 1999. 

He stated that this statue is from the late-1700s to the early-1800s.  It is a bit on the crude side but that was the general nature of a statue from that period. 

There are three additional Buddhas seated around the larger Buddha.  Leaves of a Bodhi tree are behind the upper Buddha figure.  All sit on a pedestal with other characters on the sides of the pedestal.  On the back of this statue is another Buddha inside a shrine-like structure.   

For the Serious Collector.  Stand not included.  9.5″ tall x 4″ at widest point.
