    The Dama de Elche is a bust of a female figure from Elche that is considered an outstanding example of Iberian art. The bust is approximately 56 cm high and is made of limestone and shows a woman wearing a complex hair ornament and a wheel-shaped decoration above her ears on each side of her head. The original bust is on display in the Museo Arqueológico Nacional de España in the Spanish capital Madrid.

    The Lady of Elche is one of the most emblematic pieces of Iberian art and a cultural symbol of Spain.

    Material: Carved and originally polychrome limestone.

    Dimensions: 56 cm high, 45 cm wide, 37 cm deep; approximate weight: 65 kg.
    It represents a female bust with idealized features.
    She wears an elaborate headdress: a tiara with a veil, a diadem, and two large side buns where her hairstyle was gathered.
    She wears a mantle that reveals three necklaces, earrings, and a fibula.
    There is a cavity on the back, suggesting its use as a funerary urn.
