Pendant with Sukkothai Buddha in Temple

A little pendant with a glowing orange panel and a figure framed by a peaked arch.

This pendant with sukhothai buddha in temple is contemporary. It is clay & copper. The Sukhothai period in Thai history is generally dated to the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries and is celebrated for graceful walking and seated Buddha images. The dark arched case is edged with fine twisted wire and holds a textured orange plaque, with a slender standing figure beneath an ornate pointed gable. A worn ring loop is at the top. It is 0.75 inches long, 0.25 deep and 1 high.

Pocket-sized devotion with a very orange glow.
