A cast Lady Justice, 19 cm tall, in an antiqued bronze finish — blindfold, sword point-down, and a scrolled balance with two chain-hung pans that genuinely swing.

Product Info

Cast resin, bronze-effect finish, metal balance

Overview

Almost every Lady Justice sold as a desk ornament cheats in the same place: the scales, moulded into the hand as one rigid lump.

These hang. A metal beam, fine chains, two pans that swing and settle level — with the blindfold, the classical knot and the deep robe folds modelled to match.

Care

Dust with a soft dry brush rather than a cloth — it reaches into the drapery folds and scrollwork and slips past the balance chains. Keep it out of long direct sun, and skip polish and solvents: the bronze look is a surface finish rather than oxidised metal.

Materials

Cast resin body with an antique bronze-effect finish — the maker's own term is 'imitation copper', not solid bronze. The balance beam, pans and chains are metal, which is why the scale hangs and swings.

  • Body: Cast resin, finished in antique bronze-effect
  • Balance: Metal beam, chains and two pans, genuinely suspended
  • Size: 19 cm tall, 9.5 cm across the oval base, ~300 g
  • Detail: Folded blindfold, coiled hairknot, deep robe folds, sword point-down, serpent across the base

Working balance

Scales that actually hang

The scrolled beam is a separate metal part and each shallow pan hangs from it on three fine chains, so they swing and settle level. On most versions of this figure the whole scale is one rigid moulding. It is the first thing anyone notices.

The finish

Depth under a desk lamp

A dark bronze-brown ground with gold brushed onto the raised edges, so the drapery keeps its depth under a lamp. The body is cast resin under that finish; the beam, chains and pans are metal.

19 cm tall

Holds a desk corner

Tall enough to hold a desk corner or a shelf on its own, without a cluster of other objects crowding it. The balance arm reaches out sideways beyond the base, so give it a little breathing room.

The chains sold it to me

I bought a similar one years ago as a qualification present and the scales were one moulded blob, which cheapened the whole thing. These hang on real chains and swing when you nudge them, and both pans sit level. Bought it for my partner's chambers desk and the first thing every visitor does is flick the pan.

Real presence on a desk

It has proper presence on a desk and the drapery is genuinely well modelled. The body is resin under the bronze finish, which is stated clearly here, and the balance is real metal. Mine arrived boxed well with the chains untangled.

Stands steady, dusts easily

A soft brush gets into the robe folds beautifully and slips straight past the chains. Standing steady on my desk with no wobble — the sword and the snake on the base do the work there.

Frequently asked questions

Is it solid bronze?
The body is cast resin with a bronze-effect finish — the maker's own wording is 'imitation copper' — while the balance beam, chains and two pans are metal, which is what lets the scale hang and swing. Real presence for its size, at a fraction of cast-bronze cost.
Do the scales really move?
Yes. The scrolled beam is a separate metal piece and each shallow pan hangs beneath it on three fine chains, so both pans swing freely and settle back level on their own. Decorative rather than calibrated, but they move exactly as a real balance does.
How much space does it need?
19 cm tall on a 9.5 cm oval base, with the balance arm reaching out sideways a little beyond it, so allow a bit of clearance. It reads as a desk-corner, bookshelf or credenza piece with real presence.
Does it stand steadily?
Yes. The sword reaches the ground and the coiled serpent wraps the base behind her feet, so the weight carries through three contact points rather than two slim ankles, and the flat oval base sits level without rocking.
