Description
Among the armaments gathered by the Wizard for the Battle of the Mounds stands this faithful reproduction shield inspired by Conan the Barbarian. Forged from steel and treated with an antique bronze finish, this shield measures a solid 24 inches across. Its surface shows the marks left by heat and hammer, a testament to the forging process that strengthens the metal and gives it a rugged character. On the back, two thick leather straps are firmly riveted to the steel boss, designed to fit the arm securely and allow the bearer to wield it with control and endurance during battle.
- Overall: 24″ diameter
- Weight: 9 lbs / 3 oz
Fun fact: The Cimmerian round shield, much like this one, was shaped to balance protection and mobility. Warriors of the northern tribes prized shields light enough to parry and strike quickly, reflecting their harsh, unforgiving environment and relentless fighting style.
