A Buddha sitting cross-legged in the earth touching position, on a stylised lotus pedestal base. The metal has a very dark patina and the pedestal base is hollow with evidence of being fired on the inside. The Buddha is wearing ornate Southeast Asian styled clothing with an elaborate conical headdress. There is a pear-shaped object between his left thumb and palm.
