Greek handmade bronze statue of Poseidon, museum copy.

God of the sea, of earthquakes,
of land, storm and horses Poseidon is one of the twelve Olympian deities of the pantheon in Greek mythology, brother of Zeus and Hades. His main domain is the ocean, and he is called the "God of the Sea".

He is usually depicted as an older male with curly hair and a beard.
According to Plato, the island of Atlantis was the chosen domain of Poseidon.
His symbol was the trident.
Poseidon was the elemental god of the sea, flowing water and earthquakes.

Brother of Zeus and Hades, he was married to the sea-nymph Amphitrite, but had no children with her.

He had numerous affairs, all fruitful, but the offspring were rather 'unusual'; for example, Polyphemos the one-eyed Cyclops and Pegasus the winged horse. With his trident he would strike the ocean floor to cause violent tempests and earthquakes.

A strike of his trident would also cause storms and earthquakes to abate.

With raw material silver, bronze, copper and aluminum, we create works of art and make museum copies, with absolute respect for the detail and aesthetics of the original. Inspired by the timeless Greek art, we support and promote the cultural heritage and tradition of our country.

The combination of experience, well-trained craftsmen, selected raw materials, strict control in production and careful packaging, characterize the company's products for their consistently high quality. Athena has been cast using the traditional 'lost wax' method.

As nothing is mass-produced, there will inevitably be slight variations in patination and colouring. Each piece is, therefore, unique.

Hand made in Greece. Professional packing. We take extra care in safely packing our fragile items to ensure safe delivery.

Suitable for indoor and outdoor areas.
