A Pair of Heavy Cast Stone Buddha Heads
This lot comprises a matched pair of heavy cast stone Buddha heads, each modelled with a grey, stone-effect finish. Both heads are offered as a pair and would suit a garden, terrace, or interior setting where a sculptural focal point is required.
Form, Style and Notable Features
Each head is finished with rows of tightly coiled spiral curls covering the cranium, a traditional representation of the Buddha’s hair. A small raised urna, or third eye, sits centrally between the brows. The eyes are gently lowered, and the serene expression is completed by a faint smile with defined lips. The elongated earlobes and the rounded, tapering neck and base give both pieces a consistent, classical Southeast Asian character.
Condition and Collector Interest
Both heads show surface wear, with speckling and minor marks visible across the stone-effect finish, and some small areas of surface damage are apparent on the right-hand example. They are offered as seen and no further assurances are given. Their heavy construction and paired arrangement may appeal to collectors of Asian-inspired sculpture, garden enthusiasts seeking statement pieces, and buyers looking to create a symmetrical display.
