LP Parn amulet, Phim Hanuman Yai, baked clay
Professional Techniques
LP Parn Amulet
Wat Bangnomkho, Ayuthaya
Standard Batch, B.E.2460

Texture type: General or Standard
The standard batch amulets of LP Parn, Wat BangNomKho, Ayuthaya, were created in BE 2460. They comprise more than 35 Phims. Even the surface of the scarcely used amulet rather looks like new brick, but they do not look fresh due to their high age of more than 80 years.

Most LP Parn amulets have the texture as shown on the above pic. But there are still other kinds of texture, some of which the lacking-knowledge identifiers are not acquainted with and often identify them fake. Ironically, those amulets are not fake, but the IDENTIFIERS are !!  

Please see the arrow pointings:

1. Old-look surface-- not fresh    
2. Prickly-heat-like surface in some areas due to the covered sand below
3. Moderately fine sand can be seen on worn out areas  

*** Most LP Parn amulets mixed with moderately fine sand, the big-sized sand is hardly found.
