The Pra Pid Ta Hlang Baeb of LP Kaew, Wat Kruea Wan temple, in white powders, is a very rare model, and a truly remarkable and classic exhibit, widely regarded as the number one amulet of the esteemed monk, Luang Por Kaew, of Wat Kruea Wan (formerly of Wat Pak Tale). This ancient amulet, created and empowered by the Great Ancient Sorceror-Monk of Olden Days, Luang Por Kaew, is a a legendary amulet that has attested to his exceptional skills and mastery in the art of amulet-making. The Pra Pid Ta is made from a unique blend of sacred powders, known as Nuea Pong Wised, composed of 5 special magical Yantra Powders (Bpathamang, Puttakun, Trinisinghae, Ittijae, Maharach).

One particularly striking feature of this amulet is the concave indented Pid Ta on its rear face, which is a hallmark of Luang Por Kaew's work. This intricate detail, along with the slender arms and perfectly detailed relief of the Buddha image, creates a sense of depth and character that is truly captivating. Luang Por Kaew created this masterpiece during his time as a monk in Chonburi Province, around the year 2365 BE. This was a significant period in Thai history, as Pra Jao Thaksin Maharaj was leading the effort to restore Siam to freedom from invaders. The Pra Pid Ta Hlang Baeb Wat Kruea Wan is not only a beautiful and well-preserved example of Luang Por Kaew's work, but also a tangible piece of Thai history that speaks to the enduring power and significance of Buddhist amulets
