<p>[QUOTE=&quot;2manybooks, post: 820771, member: 8267&quot;]I know this is not &quot;Tribal&quot;, but it seems to be the forum where Asian arts often end up. That said....</p><p><br /></p><p>I have seen quite similar examples of disembodied heads on ebay, such as this (with an interesting story): <a href="https://www.ebay.com/itm/Old-Thailand-Buddha-Head-Statue-7-039-039-Tall-/173934385973?hash=item287f4c1b35%3Ag%3A3a8AAOSwOuxc6z8K&amp;nma=true&amp;si=gm1FO%252FYM56z93CINA1Zio2NT5Gs%253D&amp;orig_cvip=true&amp;nordt=true&amp;rt=nc&amp;_trksid=p2047675.l2557" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.ebay.com/itm/Old-Thailand-Buddha-Head-Statue-7-039-039-Tall-/173934385973?hash=item287f4c1b35%3Ag%3A3a8AAOSwOuxc6z8K&amp;nma=true&amp;si=gm1FO%252FYM56z93CINA1Zio2NT5Gs%253D&amp;orig_cvip=true&amp;nordt=true&amp;rt=nc&amp;_trksid=p2047675.l2557" rel="nofollow">https://www.ebay.com/itm/Old-Thailand-Buddha-Head-Statue-7-039-039-Tall-/173934385973?hash=item287f4c1b35:g:3a8AAOSwOuxc6z8K&amp;nma=true&amp;si=gm1FO%2FYM56z93CINA1Zio2NT5Gs%3D&amp;orig_cvip=true&amp;nordt=true&amp;rt=nc&amp;_trksid=p2047675.l2557</a> </p><p>I wanted to ask if anyone ([USER=2844]@Any Jewelry[/USER], et al) knows if these are being mass produced in Thailand for tourists, or might it have actually been taken from a larger statue. I have mixed feelings either way. The head itself is about 4 3/4&quot; / 11.5 cm high. (I am also posting a Chinese gilded iron head of Guanyin, with basically the same question.) Thanks for your info and input. Here is the Thai Buddha:</p><p>[ATTACH=full]192733[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]192734[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]192735[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]192736[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
