Recently I have adquired this screenused Amazon turtle shield prop directly from New Zealand, after the show ended this shields style never left the country, they were stored by a former Xena tv series member, Anna Low, and recently sold to another person who decided to sell them. In this case is one of my favorite amazon items that will match with my other amazon stuff and Solari and Varia costumes.

This screenused Amazon turtle shield was used by the amazons in the season 6 episode "To Helicon and Back" during the beach invasion when the amazon tribe was under siege. It is hard resin painted to resemble a tortoise shell, and in the back part has a pair of leather straps to be hold. The numbering on the leather strap was added by former Xena crew member for inventory purposes. This one is number 7/26 units.

Particulary this shield has been preserved in very good condition so the paint is almost in mint condition 21 years ago the episode "To Helicon and back" was filmed.
