Set of Buddhist Monk Wood Carvings ABA58

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.
