The Khmer Empire (also known as Kambujadesa) was located in Southeast Asia on the Indochinese Peninsula. It comprised modern-day Cambodia and much of Vietnam, Thailand, and Laos. Often considered one of the Seven Wonders of the World, Angkor Wat is located within the Khmer Empire's capital of Angkor (the spiritual heart of the once mighty Khmer Empire), located just north of the central Tonlé Sap Lako

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Khmer terracotta figures from the 19th century continue centuries-old artistic traditions from Southeast Asia, featuring formal seated or standing postures, serene facial expressions, elaborate crowns, and stylized jewellery details influenced by Hindu and Buddhist iconography.

These sculptures were modelled using local earthenware clay, often shaped around a core or press-moulded, with intricate features, crowns, and garments carved by hand prior to low-temperature kiln firing.

Authentic pieces display natural surface erosion, residual slip or pigment, firing imperfections, and genuine mineral deposits or patination consistent with age and exposure to regional climate conditions.

Position the sculpture as a focal point on a dark wooden sideboard, a marble mantelpiece, or a dedicated plinth against a neutral backdrop to highlight its silhouette and tactile surface texture.

Dust gently using a dry, soft-bristled brush or low-suction vacuum with a brush attachment. Avoid water, liquid detergents, or chemical solvents, as porous earthenware can absorb moisture and damage delicate surface patination.
