I would like to offer you this amazing KPM porcelain figurine of a lady warrior with her shield and spear. I believe she is Athena. As you can see in the pictures, her shield has a raised face with wings on the head of the face. I think this shield symbolizes Medussa. Athena lent her shield to Perseus when he went to slay Medusa. Medussa’s semblance on this shield would explain the fear enemies would have when they layed their eyes on it. This lady warrior is dressed in a long draped dress with gold decoration and gold and orange draping fabrics on her back. The figurine is all porcelain except for her gilt metal spear which fits into her hand. This figure is beautifully modelled. It would be a wonderful decoration for any table, cabinet or mantle. It is 7.5 inches tall. Price-$2300.00.
