Gabrielle screenused Sais Photoshoot

Here are some photos of my Gabrielle screenused Sais, hope you like them! ;)





The Return of the Valkyrie

One of my favourite costumes of all over the series. Here is a screenused Xena Valkyrie costume. I will post early some detailed photos.
Full costume is the corset, armour, skirt, gaunlet, boots, helmet, sword and shealth. Also, ea*The only thing is that it is only one gaunlet, I will search for the other one. 


Valkyrie armour leaves were made of a kind of flexible translucent resin but with the time are easier to break, however, this costume is in very good condition.

About the helmet, for me the most interesting part. This helmet is in great condition, theres a tag inside that says "Xena" and also is written in a particulary hidden place "Xena Double Stuntie". I will post more photos of that things.

Comparing Gabrielle Sais

Hello friends! Today I bring a special photo with Gabrielle latest weapons during the tv series.
Yesterday I received the screenused Sais used by Gabrielle played by Renée O'Connor and I realized that were a masterpiece and I was very proud of owning them, always I believe that sharing some photos will make many people feel grateful and pleased of it, as I already know.

So, inside the shadowbox of the Creation Entertainment Sais I've placed the screenused Sais to make a fast comparison:
  1. The material is different, Screenused Sais are hard resin on the handle and soft resin, foam, in the blade. Although, the inside of the screenused sais has a metal heart to give more consistency to the weapon and thus, to prevent it from bending. Creation are metal as we all know.
  2. As you see, the blade of the screenused sais is thicker and much more detailed that the Creation Ent ones.
  3. The handle of both pair of sais are the same size.
  4. Also, the notches on the handle and blade are much more visible in the screenused ones.
  5. The leather wrap on the handle is painted resin on the screenused sais, instead of the Creation Ent sais is real leather.
  6. Screenused sais have signs of wear and the tips are a bit bent from fighting scenes, on the other hand, the Creation Ent sais looks perfectly polished and no signs of wear.

In conclusion, Creation Ent Sais are iconic, made of metal and looks amazing inside the shadow box. The screenused sais are also iconic, you can breathe the essence of the tv series on them, is a piece of heart of Xena: Warrior Princess tv series from the 90's and just thinking Renée used them at some point makes me feel so proud. I love each piece of my collection, that is the reason I bought them. However, this pair of screenused sais have a special place in my heart. 💗💗💗

Screenused Gabrielle Sais Prop

Here is a pair of screenused Gabrielle sais used by Renée O'Connor and double stunts during the production of the lastest seasons of the tv show. 


They are made out of heavy resin and the blade is made of a kind of soft resin, foam. Remember that the metal ones were rarely used on set because they can easily hurt anyone. Probably, they were used often and the tips are bent from fighting scenes.

These sais come with a COA from the "It's a Wrap!" US auction. Renée O'Connor and her stunt double used sais in most of the action sequences of the fifth and sixth season.
