Khmer Bronze Bayon Style Bracelet
Khmer Bronze Bayon Style Bracelet
The Khmer Empire, Bayon period, c. 1100-1300AD, Sakaew province, Cambodia.
Delicate small-sized cast leaded bronze alloy bracelet. The Khmer Empire, or the Angkorian Empire, are the terms that historians use to refer to Cambodia from the 9th century to the 15th century when the nation was a Hindu/ Buddhist empire in Southeast Asia. As its peak, the Khmer Empire was larger than the Byzantine Empire which existed around the same time. Perhaps its most notable legacy is the site of Angor, in present-day Cambodia, the Khmer capital during the empire's zenith. The majestetic monuments of Angkor, such as Angkor Wat and Bayon, bear testimony to the Khmer Empire's immense power and wealth.
Skilfully and elegantly shaped cylindrical bracelet with fascinating fluted design. Good condition. Intact. Age-related heavy wear, corrosion and abrasion. Attractive encrustred greenish gray patina. Size approx. 6,4cm x 6,4cm x 0,8cm.
Provenance: Danish private collection
