Southeast Asia, Thailand, ca. 15th century CE. A set of 3 bronze or brass Buddha heads as well as a pottery seated Buddha covered in silver-hued metal foil. Each Buddha head features a conical ushnisha and downcast eyes while the seated Buddha figure holds hands in the Bhumisparsha mudra.

According to the consignor, this piece was previously owned by the Portland Art Museum in Oregon.
