Resin Emerald Buddha Style, Pink, 11 Inches

This is an 11-inch resin figure in the form of the Emerald Buddha, พระแก้วมรกต. He sits in meditation with legs crossed and hands in the lap, wearing a tall gold crown and a spire above the head. Gold chains and arm bands sit on a translucent pink body, and the tiered gold base has red bands with a small shield on the front.

The real Emerald Buddha is the palladium image in Wat Phra Kaew in Bangkok. Thai custom dresses that image in different robes for the hot season, the rains, and the cool season. This piece is a resin copy of that crowned, seated form. It is not jade, and it is not the temple image.

Naree discusses Buddha figures and their meaning on Uniquely Thai Lao TV at 5:00 PM PST, including how weekday poses and crowned styles are chosen for home altars.
