    This Buddha came from a Buddhist temple in Chiangmai, Thailand which was salvaged and is one of the last large spiritual relics remaining in Christian Armstrong's private collection. Christian Armstrong was the founder of the Free Burma Project and Buddha Preservation Foundation.   Not many people can claim to have authentic temple pieces such as this extraordinary Buddha. It’s definitely a one of a kind beautiful work of art!
    We are proud to be selling Christian Armstrong's private collection. Christian Armstrong was the founder of the Free Burma Project and Buddha Preservation Foundation.These spiritual artifacts and rare relics came primarily from Buddhist and Hindu temples. These sacred buildings were nearly destroyed by natural disasters and warfare yet these relics were able to be salvaged and brought here to California. In addition to the salvaged temple pieces, other antiquities and spiritual artifacts in this collection were acquired by deep sea excavations all around the world including countries such as Thailand, India, Myanmar (Burma), Laos, Cambodia, and some regions of the Ivory Coast.
