@@@ 23 Hours Bidding @@@ Bid starts : Now Bid end : 26-10-2014 11pm Singapore Time Phra Somdej Phim Tham Sam (Wat Bang Khun Prom) B.E.2517, Bangkok About 140 years ago, the sacred plaque Phra Somdej was made by Archan Toh who had built 3 temples which were respectively the ChaiYo Woraviharn, the Wat Rakang Kositaram and Wat Bangkhunprom (later divided into Wat Mai Amataros and Wat Intharaviharn). When Phra Somdej Toh was serving his last year term at Wat In (Wat Intarawihan) he made the last batch of sacred plaques and buried them all at the burial ground in a nearby chedi in Wat Amataros, at that time a short walking distance to Wat Inn located in Angtong province. In 2509, 2517 and 1931, Wat Bang Khun Prom used old broken amulets from Wat Mai Amataros, including those of Phra Somdej Archan Toh for new a new series of Phra Somdej. Somdej Phra Phutdhajharn (Toh), Wat Rakang, made and blessed the most famous Somdej Wat Rakang between BE 2400-2413. Somdej Toh passed away in BE 2415 (1872) at the age of 85. All his Somdej amulets were blessed by himself with ChinnaBanchorn Katha. Materials for making the Somdejs comprise: shell lime, Phong Vises ( holy powder), assorted flowers from shrine, rice remains after his consumption, lotus, banana, ashes from incense urns, honey, tang oil, etc. The Phra Somdej amulet is probably the most popular amulet in Thailand. It has been created by countless monks ever since the first Somdej amulet, Somdej Orahang or Ong Tee Neung, was consecrated by acting Supreme Patriart of Thailand, Phra Sankaraj Suk from Wat Mahathat in BE 2360-2363. It was this amulet that formed the template for the later and possibly greatest Somdej amulets of all time created by Somdej Phra Buddhacharn (Somdej Toh) from Wat Rakhang and Wat Bangkhunprom. Reference book: Pra Bang Khun Prom 2509 and Powder Amulet of Wat Mai Ammataros by Teerayuth Chong Boon Ya Nu Parb, illustrates 2509 batch, 2517 batch, 2531 batch, Somdet 100 Pee Wat Rakang, Somdet Luang Ta Pan, Somdet LP.Lampoo. Features, every pattern of each batch. One important thing to note about this batch of somdej amulets is that every phim is different and not the same in terms of clarity and size. This is because these BKP batches were hand made. Due to the mixture of many types of powders, the colour of the amulets also varies from one to another, some are more white and some more yellow. Some Somdej BKP have a temple stamp on reverse, lighter, darker or no chop at all. Some collectors prefer the stamp while others prefer none, entirely a personal choice and individual taste. * Terms & Conditions * Bid starts : Now Bid end : 26-10-2014 11pm Singapore Time Base bid : $188 Sgd Minimum per bid : $20 Sgd Or Rent Now : $588 * No editing of bids. ** All bid will be in Singapore Dollars. *** Winner will be PM within 1 hour time after the bid is closed. ** Additional $4 Sgd For registered mail Overseas n local who choose to be mail after full payment.
