Travel back to the Kingdom of Ayutthaya, as Thailand was once known, and witness King Naresuan’s legendary duel with the Burmese crown prince, Mingyi Swa in great detail on the receiver’s left side. The Battle of the Satong River fills the opposite side of the receiver, showing King Naresuan routing the enemy troops with his legendary shot, thereby gaining Ayutthaya’s independence.
King Naresuan, nicknamed “the Great” for his success and popularity, pours out holy water on the receiver bottom, symbolically declaring the independence of Ayutthaya from Burma. The top latch features a familiar Thai symbol.
Engraver Creative Art meticulously captures each famous event in intricate detail, always highlighting “the Great” adorned in his majestic robes in fine gold detailing. Creative Art addresses every figure in great detail, engraving each in lifelike relief. Thai style ornamentation frames this one-of-a-kind work of art, providing the perfect finishing touch.
Valued at $145,000.00, “Naresuan the Great” sold shortly after its unveiling at the IWA Outdoor Classics international trade show happening now in Nuremberg, Germany.
