The Legendary Phra Khun Paen of Luang Phor Choti
Among collectors, Luang Phor Choti’s Khun Paen is widely regarded as one of the most spiritually potent Rattanakosin-era pieces. Produced circa BE2484 (1941), it became renowned for metta mahaniyom (loving-kindness), personal charm, and spiritual magnetism. Collector literature, including notes attributed to The Miraculous Power of the Phra Khun Phaen Amulet of Siam by Dr. Khun Det Worakan, helped cement its historical standing.
