      The set of states of an orthomodular lattice (OML) can be empty. If an OML \(L\) admits at least one state, the state space, \(\Omega(L),\) is a convex compact set whose set of \(\sigma\)-additive states forms a face. In the present paper, the author answers the question, which faces correspond to the set of filtering states. The main result is Theorem 2 which says: Let \(C\) be a compact convex sets and \(F\) a semi-exposed face of \(C.\) Then there are an OML \(L\) and an affine homeomorphism \(\phi: C \to \Omega(L)\) such that \(\phi(F) = \Omega_f(L),\) where \(\Omega_f(L)\) is the set of filtering states on \(L.\)
