I would agree extreme caution should be taken when looking at such statues....the whole statue, from the face, dress and swords are 20th century artists interpretations of 14th & 16 century kings....though they may pull from historical artifacts usually these are more recent 19th & 20th century examples.

Thanks for highlighting the Lao Laan Xaang Kingdom, Sajen. Laos has a very interesting and beautiful culture that is often overshadowed by it's neighbors.

Thanks for sharing
Thank you Nathaniel,

will post some pictures after I have received the daab.

Regards,
Detlef
