<p>[QUOTE=&quot;wlwhittier, post: 10395595, member: 76316&quot;]I have no clue when or where this was acquired. It&#039;s ~1 3/4&quot; wide by ~1 3/8&quot;&nbsp; high; made from 2 pieces of embossed copper or brass sheetmetal. Weight is ~9 grams. The 4 red spots an&#039; the 2 green apostrophes <i>may</i> be glass rather than enamel, as the green look to have been applied to pre-formed bezels...hard for me to tell.</p><p><br /></p><p>What, if anything, is special about Buddha&#039;s pose showing both palms outward? Also, is there any significance to the color, shape an&#039; placement around The Buddha of those applied bits, or the scalloped flourishes? Can a region/nation/era reasonably be ascribed to its origin?</p><p><br /></p><p>As always, I am very grateful to have you all available to comment on my odd pieces...Thanks for lookin&#039;!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]523174[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]523175[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]523176[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]523177[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
