This set of antique Buddhist monks, hand carved from hardwood, is from Mandalay, Burma. Each figure has been mindfully sculpted, revealing individual personal characteristics. The poly-chrome has eroded in places and now has an attractive faded, worn patina. We were fortunate to find a set this old without damage or repairs on our recent trip to Burma.
