Used also as a baby carrier this is part of a Khami woman’s traditional dress called a “htip paum”. Of the many I examined I chose this and the other one listed for their unusual pictorial patterns.

Alabaster Mandalay Buddha. Aprox. 50 to 80 years old, this is a very finely carved and well proportioned Buddha from Burma. It is not carved in the back because it was meant to sit in a niche and the back was never intended to be seen, typical of an older votive piece. The condition is excellent no chips or breakage with a nicely worn feel on the stone’s surface. Dimensions are 49.5cm/19.5in height and 37cm/14.5in x 23cm/9in at the bottom,
