Bring the fierce spirit of Norse warriors to your collection or historical display with this striking wooden Viking shield featuring the legendary Helm of Awe, also known as the Aegishjalmur. This ancient symbol was believed to instill fear in enemies and protect the bearer during combat, making it one of the most recognizable icons of Viking culture.

Meticulously handcrafted from wooden planks, this shield is designed for both visual impact and functional use. The face is painted with a bold black and white design that recreates the authentic style of the period and adds a striking contrast on the battlefield or in the display hall. A solid steel protrusion protects the hand, while the riveted steel rim reinforces the entire blade against impact.

The back features a sturdy wooden handle and an adjustable leather arm strap, providing a secure grip whether you're in combat or displaying it as part of your medieval decor. Ideal for Viking themes, historical role-playing games, themed photoshoots, or as a representative piece of Norse heritage, this shield will delight collectors and warriors alike.
