A 14th - 16th Century ceramic bull figure from Lampang kiln in Siam, now Thailand, survived.

 This small figure of a ceramic Nandi, the Brahma bull, was made between the 

14th and 16th century in Siam, now Thailand, at a Lampang kiln.

This type of pottery is often refered to as Sawankhalok or Si Satchanalai.

Lampang pottery is a specific type:

The brick kilns were often placed in or near a rice field and could be that big that a man could stand upright inside.

It is not known what the small humped bull statues were used for.

Several years ago it came into our collection of ancient Sawankhalok pottery, that we loved because they had survived time and travels.

Recently a Belgium collecter bought the bull and we shipped it by PostNL. 

This is how the package arrived after it's latest travel:

Miraculously the little figure survived this journey also...
