This is the art and text description of eBay Item #527592724 that was sold on 20 December 2000 for $760. This is an authentic replica of the chakram prop used by XENA (actress Lucy Lawless) on the hit Universal Studios television series. This 1:1 scale precise masterpiece replica limited edition chackram was cast directly off of an original chackram provided by the producers of the television series.This beautiful piece is made of machine-turned, polished, aluminum. Features hand cut and set authentic Paua stones (a form of abalone shell imported from New Zealand, the filming location of Xena). Boast custom detailed line-work, powder coating and paint accents. This fine art collectors piece includes a medieval stylized sculpted rock base. Include a custom enameled numbered plaque ( # 207 ). All ICONS Replicas were made in the USA under the supervision of master special effects artisians.
In early January, several additional XENA Chakrams were placed on eBay. All had a similar description to the above item, but with the following graphic. About a half dozen were sold with the rock base, but without the plaque for $450 - $600. Finally, several of the Chackrum without the rock base or plaque were sold for prices between $250 and $300. I wanted to photograph one of these for my Chackrum web page so I won a Chakram on eBay Item # 1403476106.
There are many additional Xena Checkram items that are being marketed on eBay and in retail stores. This includes another rather nice metal chakram with a curved internal central beam. The description of this Chakram (eBay Item # 1451546640 which sold for more than $550) is as follows:
