Unlike Buddha statues, Nat spirits represent protectors, ancestors, and celestial beings who, according to Burmese tradition, watch over places, families, and communities.\n\n\u003cp\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nThe statue is crafted from wood and finished with traditional black lacquer, red undercoats, and remnants of original gilding. The crown still features original mirror and glass inlay, a technique widely used in Burmese temples and shrines. The back contains a ritual niche that could originally have been used for relics, prayer scrolls, or offerings.\n\nOver the centuries, the statue has developed an impressive character. The visible wear, old restorations, remnants of gilding, layers of lacquer, and inscriptions on the base collectively tell the story of an object that was actually used for religious purposes. As a result, it possesses an aura that modern reproductions cannot match.\n\n\nFor lovers of Asian art, Buddhist culture, and authentic temple objects, this constitutes a particularly decorative and historical object with a strong spiritual presence. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color:#8a6d3b;\"\u003eWhy this statue is special\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAuthentic old temple statue from Myanmar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProbably a traditional Burmese Nat spirit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOriginal gilding, lacquer work, and mirror inlay present\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eRitual niche on the back\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eBurmese inscriptions on the base\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBeautiful weathered appearance with historical wear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eUnique collector's item and interior piece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color:#8a6d3b;\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd;padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eObject\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd;padding:8px;\"\u003eNat spirit \/ Temple figure\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd;padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd;padding:8px;\"\u003eMyanmar (Burma)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd;padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDating\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd;padding:8px;\"\u003eApprox. 1900\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd;padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd;padding:8px;\"\u003eWood, lacquer, gilding and mirror inlay\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd;padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd;padding:8px;\"\u003eRitual niche, old inscriptions, original polychromy\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd;padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd;padding:8px;\"\u003eOld wear, cracks, and wood damage consistent with age and use\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"1stbuddha","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57531532804427,"sku":"643","price":595.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1012\/6170\/5547\/files\/antieke-birmese-nat-geest-myanmar-tempelbeeld.jpg?v=1780910128","url":"https:\/\/1stbuddha.com\/products\/antique-burmese-nat-geest-gilded-wooden-temple-statue-myanmar-ca-1900","provider":"1stbuddha","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
