Lady Justice Statue – Bronze Finish Figurine, 20 cm
Symbolism That Speaks Volumes
On this 20 cm high figurine, you will find all the classic attributes that define Lady Justice. Her eyes are covered with a blindfold, symbolizing impartiality – justice does not look at the wealth or status of the accused. In her left hand, she raises high a set of scales, on which she carefully weighs guilt and innocence, evidence, and arguments. Her right hand firmly grips a sword, symbolizing power and punishment, ready to fall on those who have broken the law. Note also the detail at her feet: the goddess stands on a book (the code of law) and crushes a serpent, representing the victory of law over corruption and evil.
Origins in Antiquity
Iustitia was the personification of moral force in the judicial system of ancient Rome. She was often associated with Emperor Augustus and revered as the protector of the law. Interestingly, original ancient depictions often showed her without a blindfold – this appeared commonly as a symbol of blind (impartial) justice only in the 16th century. With this statue, you are bringing a piece of European cultural history into your home.

How to Care for the Statue
The figurine is made of polyresin, a material that captures details perfectly but requires gentle handling. To keep it looking great for years, follow these tips:
- Cleaning: Remove dust with a soft dry brush or duster. Do not use water or chemical cleaners, which could damage the patina.
- Handling: Be especially careful with the scales and the sword, which are more fragile and protrude. When moving it, hold the statue by the body or the base.
- Placement: The statue is intended for indoor use. Do not expose it to direct sunlight for long periods to prevent colours from fading.
