Fantastic greek art souvenirs, handmade greek bronze statue of an athenian helmet, worn by Athenian warriors in battle and wars like the Peloponnesian, Corinthian etc. The bronze sculpture is on a marble base and it has an engraved owl on the base of the crest. In Greek mythology, a little owl (Athene noctua) traditionally represents or accompanies Athena, the virgin goddess of wisdom and daughter of Zeus.

This sculpture is a perfect greek art decorative gift.
