This Richard the Lionheart Shield is crafted from durable 18 gauge steel, and shows the iconic heraldry of medieval England. The front has the famous three golden lions on a red background, a symbol associated with King Richard I.
The three lions design dates back to the late 12th century and became one of the most recognized royal emblems of England. It meant strength, royalty, and authority, and was used on shields, banners, and armor during medieval times.
The shield has a classic heater-style shape, which evolved from earlier kite designs. This shape gives better mobility with solid protection, making it popular among knights during battle.
The back of the shield is painted black to help resist rust and maintain durability over time. It is fitted with a sturdy handle and leather arm strap, for a secure grip and comfortable use during LARP or display.
This Richard the Lionheart Shield works well as a knight shield for LARP or costume use. It can also be displayed as a richard shield for collectors or paired with other gear as a decorative piece. Its design also connects to the traditional kite shield evolution, making it historically relevant and visually striking.
CARE INSTRUCTIONS:
- Wipe with a dry cloth after use
- Keep away from moisture to prevent rust
- Store in a dry place

- Avoid scratches to preserve the painted finish
Note: Each shield is handcrafted and hand painted. Small differences in finish, paint, or detailing are natural and part of its unique look.
