After many adventures, he finally arrived in the town of Amaravati where the people were repairing the streets.They explained to him that the Buddha Dipankara was expected in the city where his father reigned when he was Prince. Enthused, Sumedha decided to buy flowers to offer, but found no flowers to buy, the king having requisitioned all the flowers for its own offering. But to his surprise, arrived on the scene where Dipankara will come, Sumedha saw a girl holding beautiful lotus.

ANTIQUE BRONZE BURMESE 'HINTHA' BIRD OPIUM WEIGHT, Circa: early 1900's. Lot 40
BURMA. CAMBODIA. CHINA. INDIA. INDONESIA. JAPAN. KOREA. LANKA. LAO. THAILAND. TIBET. Antique Bronze Burmese'Hintha' Bird Opium Weight. Circa: early 1900's. 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' used to ... moredescribe 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: Boldly modelled in the shape of a small ground pecking fowl. Seated on a round base, rising to a small plinth indicated by relief, delicately detailed with closely fitted wings and tail plumage, bulging eyes, pointed beak, and crested headdress. Solid bronze cast with smooth naturally aged brown patina, with traces of green malachite oxidation. DISPLAY PEDESTAL IS NOT INCLUDED IN THIS AUCTION.
