ANTIQUE BRONZE BURMESE 'HINTHA' BIRD DUCK OPIUM WEIGHT, 314g. 19th C. Lot 38
BURMA. CAMBODIA. CHINA. INDIA. INDONESIA. JAPAN. KOREA. LANKA. LAO. THAILAND. TIBET. Antique Bronze Burmese'Hintha' Bird Duck Opium Weight. Pegu District, 19th Century. 314g. Overview: The Burmese mythical bird'Hintha' also known as Hamsa. Is an aquatic bird ofter considered to be a duck, goose, or sometimes a swan, which inhabited the Himalaya Forest of southern Burma, and was considered by Burmese to be a sacred animal symbolic of purity, divine knowledge and cosmic breath. XXX The mountain tribes of the Golden Triangle Region. Burma, Lao, and Thailand, originally intended the use of these miniature animal figures to weigh'opium' during the 18th-19th centuries, a time when the forbidden Opium trade was flourishing in such occupied territories which straddled the Thai-Burmese border. XXX The phrase'Opium Weight' ... moreused to describe the small. Curious-looking metal animal and bird figures is somewhat misleading- while the weights actually serve a much wider, more useful purpose; they were used to gauge the weight of daily items of commerce found in the Burmese market-place, such as food, raw materials, spices, musk, gemstone, metal, both ordinary and precious, and expensive medicine, all of which were sold in quanities determined by these weights. Items were measured by a beam hung with two baskets or trays, the correct weight was placed in one basket and the other basket filled with the desired material until the two baskets balanced. Description: The Hintha Bird Duck: Boldly modelled in the shape of a small groud pecking fowl. Seated on a round base, rising to a small plinth incised by parallel borders, traped with small squares, delicately detailed with closely fitted wings and tail plumage, bulging eyes, pointed beak, and crested headdress. Solid bronze cast with smooth naturally aged dark brown patina. DISPLAY PEDESTAL IS NOT INCLUDED IN THIS AUCTION.

EXTREMELY RARE BURMESE LISU HILL TRIBE BRONZE & WOODEN SHAMAN WARRIOR FIGURE
I have compiled a wealth of uniq I have compiled a wealth of unique treasures. Antiques and artworks from Asia with a fantastic and mysterious history from travels, China, Japan, Bali, Tibet, Burma/Myanmar, Cambodia, Taiwan, Philippines, Laos and Vietnam. My fascination with Asia inspired me to move here from England and become an avid collector/buyer of Asian oriental antique statues. Carvings, puppets, bronzes and unique objects, other items have been from years of collecting and accumulating from estates, private collections and auctions. EXTREMELY RARE BURMESE LISU HILL TRIBE BRONZE& WOODEN SHAMAN WARRIOR FIGURE A very rare wooden plaque made from bronze set on a carved wooden plaque. This is the only one I have ever seen like this in 6 years. Very collectable and unique. My photos do not really pick up any of the detail in the bronze ... morefigure. The Lisu tribe from Kachin State and southern Shan State is a less-known tribe. They make their living out of hunting and cultivating crops. They are the most colorful tribe of all that are present in Myanmar. In fact. Their confidence shows off in the colorful attires they make for themselves. Li” from the word"eelee” means culture and“su” means a person. The liberal minded Lisu people are very heritage conscious. However, they are not orthodox and started to migrate to Thailand in 1921. They receive new things but through a democratic administrative process. Their language can be extended from the Yi-Lolo subgroup of the Tibeto-Burman family of languages. Almost 30% of the language is drawn from the Chinese Haw dialect. Salaween and Mekong rivers(northern Tibet) are the original places of the Lisus. A great item to add to your collection and would make a nice center display piece. I bought this mask from a retired American living here. He has owned it the past 30 years and bought it in Africa a long time ago, I am no expert on African masks so I leave it to your judgment. Myanmar’ is the new name of Burma. In 1989. The political leaders of the country changed
