Vintage 20th Century Buddha pendant
$30
SHIPPING OFFERED
Offered for sale is this vintage 20th Century Buddha pendant and metal chain, made post-WW2 and estimated to date from the 1970’s to 1990’s. The country of origin is unknown but could be Tibet, India, Thailand, Cambodia or perhaps Bali.
Hand-carved on what may be a slice of yak horn (as buffalo horn is normally quite thin), the engaging design features a well-detailed image of the Buddha (that includes individually-cut hair curls inset with small copper/brass nails forming the ushnisha) twisted copper/brass wire head-piece and loop earrings. Suspended from a long plated chain with parrot clasp.
In good overall condition. Over time, some of the nails have patinated (confirming this being a vintage item and not modern reproduction). There is a small loss above the right eye and tiny one above the left (but then as in Buddhist philosphy, everything is intransigent and changing). Yes the price takes this into account.
The pendant measures 4.2cm (h) x 3.2cm (w) x 1.2cm (d), the chain is 60cm.
Please check the pictures as they form part of the item description.
Cash or direct deposit sale only. Can freight at buyers expense (must include insurance for damage or loss) or can personally deliver to Macedon Ranges, Melbourne, Geelong or Ballarat CBD’s for a fee. Where possible (or upon request) a physical inspection is available and always encouraged. Accurate as possible description at time of listing, however like any secondhand item is sold without guarantee or return so please ask any questions before purchase - as any sale is final.
