Bring the fearsome spirit of the Norse warriors into your collection or display with this handcrafted Viking Wooden Shield, proudly featuring the Helm of Awe (Ægishjálmur) — one of the most powerful and recognizable symbols in Viking lore. This ancient rune was believed to strike fear into enemies while granting protection and strength to its bearer, making it a symbol of both power and survival.
Expertly made from solid wooden planks, this shield combines authentic Viking aesthetics with practical durability. The bold black-and-white painted face evokes historic designs and creates a dramatic contrast, whether used in battle reenactments or displayed as a statement piece. A solid steel boss (umbo) safeguards the hand, while the riveted steel rim reinforces the edge, ensuring resilience against strikes.
On the reverse side, you’ll find a sturdy wooden hand grip paired with an adjustable leather arm strap, offering a secure hold during use or easy mounting for display. This makes the shield equally suited for Viking-themed events, LARP battles, or striking décor that pays tribute to Norse heritage.
Care Instructions
