Head on the hand, body stretched along a low couch. This cast bronze figure is about \u003cstrong\u003e8 inches tall\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003e20 inches long\u003c\/strong\u003e, so it wants a deep shelf or altar table, not a narrow ledge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eThai foundries cast it in lost wax: a wax reclining figure, clay mold, fire to lose the wax, pour bronze, break the shell, finish the robe and face. The metal is bronze (older labels said brass). That mass is why it sits differently from hollow resin reclining Buddhas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eTuesday-born families in Thailand and Laos often keep this posture at home. The pose recalls the last hours at Kusinara and the great reclining image at Wat Pho in Bangkok. That is devotion and memory, not a promise of fortune.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eDust with a dry cloth.
