In the 12th century with the introduction of the pot helmet, the individual knight could no longer be recognized by his face, and another means of identification became necessary.Therefore their shields were painted in boldly contrasting colours and because armorial bearings were designed for battle, fierce animals were displayed as well.We are offering an authentic copy of such a shield in yellow colour (sorry, no others available yet).
Shield dimensions:
117 cms.(46") high x 72 cms.(28") wide around the curve
weight : 3.5 kgs.(7.7 lbs.)
These shields are made from plywood lined with linen, showing a handpainted heraldic lion.3 strong leather straps are fitted on the back as to be seen on our right photo.Shipping to the US is unfortunately impossible due to the size of this shield, which exceeds the largest possible parcel size.
