    Aloha,
    Up for sale from a recent collector in Honolulu Hawaii this pair of Excavated
    15th century Thai
    Ayutthaya
    period molded lead made ear plugs on a acrylic stand.
    Whereas Sukhothai was an independent kingdom for only about 200 years, its successor, Ayutthaya--situated in the
    rich rice plains of the Chao Phraya River basin, about 55 miles north of present-day Bangkok--lasted more than 400
    years. During the Ayutthayan period the Tai consolidated their position as the leading power in what is now central
    and north-central Thailand, as well as throughout much of its southern peninsular region
    .  The condition is described above - for more details please check the photos.
    This is only one of about 300 pieces that will be listed in the coming days and weeks from this collection.  We w
    ere very fortunate for having been chosen to
    work with the estate.  There are many items that I have not seen outside of well stocked museums.  The tags that are attached to the items are from a gallery here in Honolulu and the pricing on the tags was what these items were offered for.  I am delighted to offer all pieces at significantly lower rates and hope that these items will find new homes in collections all over the world.
    Measurements:
    Ear Plugs 0.5 inches high
    Stand 3.75 inches high

    Shipping:
    Although
    Hawaii is part of the United States,
    it is important to know when purchasing items that
    shipping times can be a bit longer and shipping charges can be a bit higher than for the US mainland.
    Please keep this in mind
    when rating my shipping charges and handling times,
    as your ratings have immediate discount or listing-standing consequences for me. Thank you for understanding!!!
    Packing material
    :  I
    charge you my costs
    for all packing materials used.  However, this is
    Hawaii and not the continental US,
    and everything has to be
    shipped in from out of state.
    To give you an idea, a
    shipping box,
    if it is not a free one from the Post Office, costs between
    -
    .
    Bubble wrap
    costs
    per foot
    and I usually use at least 3 or 4 feet or more for breakable items.
    Foam chips
    per box (book box size) will be between
    - ,
    and packing tape costs me a small roll.
