All auctions / Sculptures / Burmese Pyinsarupa Guardian Heads, Pair, with Antlers
Southeast Asia, Burma (Myanmar), ca. 19th century CE. A pair of wooden Pyinsarupa guardian heads with attached deer antlers, originally crafted to decorate and protect a temple or other sacred structure. The Pyinsarupa (also spelled Binasarupa or Pyinsa Rupa) is a chimera-like creature in Burmese mythology and traditional art, featuring a curved, trunk-like nose, pointed ears, bulging eyes, fangs, and mane-like protrusions. The composite beast is traditionally formed from the attributes of multiple animals, symbolizing strength, courage, and protection, and is believed to ward off evil spirits and safeguard sacred spaces. The antlers, likely from a Sambar or Eld's deer, are not original to the carvings but were added at a later date. Size: 27" W x 24" H (68.6 cm x 61 cm); 35" H (88.9 cm) on included custom stand.
