Description
Absolutely stunning example of this beautiful amulet blessed by Luang Phor Iam in BE 2396 at Wat Sapansoong.
Luang Poo Iam – Pra Pim Samathi (Chedi Yai) Lang Yant Na, BE 2396
In general any amulets blessed by LP Iam, Wat Sapansoong are priced well beyond the avergae collector, and in particular his pitda amulets. That was up until BE 2534 when a new Kru, or secret cell was discovered at the temple containing many different types of pim including a number of extraordinary pitda variants. These amulets which are available on the market are considerably less expensive and in fact should be within the reach of almost all collectors.
Amulets were confirmed as blessed by Luang Phor Iam, the famous monk from Pakret, over 150 years ago in BE 2396. Immensely desirable these amulets and are increasing in value very quickly and we would highly recommend you acquire at least one example.
Many of these amulets have a surface texture and appearance similar to those of Wat Bangkhunprom and are believed to contain similar materials. The body of the amulets are made from ground shell cement mixed with Phutthakun powder. A small amount is ground meat mixed with lacquer powder mixed with Wan-sacred powder ground from shells
Reverend Grandfather Iam passed away in the year 1887. Reverend Grandfather Klin who was a disciple continued to build and placed this set of amulets into the Chedi which was completed in 1986 when they were filled by Luang Pu Klin aged only 31 at the time. The magic powder that was mixed was probably the auspicious soros powder, just like the used to create t all his other amulets
When the kru was opened in 1991, it was noted that many of the amulets were stained in an almost identical way to those amulets contained in the Kru at Bang Khun Phrom .
These amulets are highly respected for the sacred power to protect worshippers from danger whilst at the same time increase fortune and charm.
Despite the fact that these amulets are well documented they still remain relatively unknown to all but experienced collectors. These amulets are a fantastic substitute for his takrut Solos Mongkhon and or his mainstream Pitda pims
Luang Phor Iam
Luang Pu Iam of Wat Nang and his Takrut Mongkut Phraputthajao Luang Pu Eiam, Wat Sapansung Luang Pu Iam Pathmanama of Wat Sapansoong is reputed to be one of the best Phra Pidta makers in Thailand. His Takrut Tone Maha Soros Mongkon is consistently ranked by Thais as one of the top takrut of all time.
Wat Sapansoong, was previously known as Wat SawangArom, and changed its name to Wat Sapansoong during the reign of King Rama V, as it shared a similar name with another temple. Because of its proximity to an elevated bridge overlooking the river to Wat SawangArom, it was christened Sapansoong (or “High Bridge”). Somdej Kromphraya Wachirayan Waroroj was the monk responsible for selecting the temple’s new name.
