Bronze Figure “Justitia with Scales and Sword” on Black Marble - golden-brown - H. 40,2 cm

Justitia, blind to rank and reputation, weighs with raised scales and keeps her sword at the ready.

For a law firm, a notary's office or a judge's desk she is the classic emblem. For passing the bar, an admission or the opening of a practice there is hardly a more fitting gift.

Craftsmanship

Once cast in a lost mould, the bronze passes to the chaser and finally receives a hand-applied patina. The scale pans hang from fine chains, and the tip of the sword touches the ground where a law book and a serpent lie. The bodice with its mascaron and the flowing robe are richly chased; a round bronze foot stands on stepped black marble.

Care

Remove dust with a soft brush or a dry cloth. Avoid cleaning agents so that the patina stays intact.
