This large antique wooden Nat statue, known as Kohijo, originates from Burma (Myanmar) and stands at an impressive height of 100.2 cm. Crafted in the 19th century, this exquisite piece showcases the artistry and cultural heritage of Myanmar. The statue is partly gilded with 24-karat gold, enhancing its spiritual significance and aesthetic appeal.

In Burmese tradition, Nat spirits are considered protectors and deities, embodying the natural and cosmic forces. This particular statue depicts a Nat on horseback, symbolizing power and authority. The inlaid eyes of the statue contribute to its lifelike character, capturing the essence of the spirit it represents. The dimensions of the statue—31.5 cm wide and 69.5 cm deep—add to its presence, making it a striking addition to any collection.

Burma's rich history is infused with the reverence for Nat spirits, which blend indigenous beliefs with elements of Buddhism. This reflects the complex tapestry of Myanmar’s religious and cultural evolution. The statue not only serves as a decorative item but also as a conduit to the spiritual and historical narratives of the region, reminding us of the significance of Nat worship in Burmese life. Adding this piece to your collection offers a glimpse into the profound traditions and artistic excellence of Myanmar.
