PHRA SOOMKOR , 拍顺哥佛像

Phra  Kamphang Soonkor Buddha Pendant, size medium, Kamphangphet.

This medium size Phra Somkor amulet is sometimes called ‘ BUDDHA  of  FORTUNE ’.  It was said that when an inscription was found, what written in the chidi ( Pagoda ) was: “Poverty will never fall on those who possess this amulet”.  The amulets were from Kamphengphet province.  The buddha image seems to have a mixture of Sukhothai style and Sri Lankan style and they are estimated to be made approximately 500 years ago.  A layer of calcium covers the surface of the buddha penant, thus proving authenticity of its ancient history.
