Thai Bronze Sculpture of Four-Armed Shiva (Phra Isuan)

This is a large-scale cast bronze sculpture of a deity, likely a Thai interpretation of the Hindu god Shiva, known in Thailand as Phra Isuan. The figure is depicted in a dynamic, martial pose with four arms, holding traditional attributes including a tri-pronged trident (trishula) and a sword. The deity wears an elaborate, tall conical headdress (Chada) featuring intricate tiered detailing and flame-like ear or wing ornaments (Kranok). The physical construction appears to be lost-wax cast bronze with remnants of gilding or gold leaf across the decorative garments, chest piece, and armbands, contrasting against a dark, aged patina on the skin areas. The figure is dressed in heavily textured traditional Thai attire with ornate floral or geometric scrolling patterns. In terms of condition, the piece shows significant environmental patina and oxidation, particularly in the crevices of the metalwork, which is characteristic of 20th-century Rattanakosin-style reproductions intended for interior decoration. There appears to be some surface wear and minor structural distress on the extremities, particularly the trident and sword, which may have slight bends. The scale is substantial, suggesting it was designed as a statement piece for a gallery or high-end residential interior. Craftsmanship is categorized as high-quality commercial casting with hand-finished chasing on the fine details of the jewelry and costume.
