Hi,
I have a similar piece which I had collected in Thailand about 15 years ago. So you may be right about its Thai origin. (I notice that your piece is missing a pointed nob at the top of the stupa.)
I cannot really tell the condition of your piece from the pictures and it is never easy to tell the age of bronze sculptures. When I acquired my piece, I was told (if I remember correctly) that it was close to 200 years old. I can not verify that, nor can I say that yours is also of that age.
I did not do any research on this sculpture when I first got it but I think I will try to check back with my Thai sources to get more information if I can.
