Solid Oak Viking Tri-Knot Shield

This beautiful handmade and hand-painted wooden shield features a unique Tri-Knot design inspired by Viking and Norse shields of old. While this particular design is similar to knot artwork created by the Celts, there is a little bit of overlap within some of the more simplified designs and styles of both Celts and Vikings. This shield is made of solid red oak, and measures about 28 inches across and 1/2 inches thick. A heavy metal disc/boss is affixed to the center, and stainless steel studs line the border. Dual leather straps are also used to secure the arm along the back—one going over the forearm and one intended to be gripped or held. Because this shield is made of real wood, please note that the wood-grain background shown in the pictures may vary slightly from the shield you receive (this is simply due to the nature of the wood). The front of the shield has also been applied with several coats of topcoat/varnish to protect it through the centuries. So whether for the wall or the battlefield, this shield is well balanced and ready to serve.
