text: This smooth wooden Viking shield features the serpent Jormungandr. It is viewed as the ultimate symbol of fate's inevitability in Norse mythology. Viking warriors would demonstrate with this icon their will to go to battle and accept whatever fate the gods are in store for them.
  The shield is made out of 0.75 inches thick wood, with a steel hand-hammered umbo at the center. It can be used as a decorative wall hanger or as a functional piece for medieval reenactment or LARP.

  Care Instructions
  We recommend applying three or four times per year some beeswax polish to protect the wood surface from moisture and sunlight. Apply the oil onto a lint-free cloth and rub into the wooden surface following the direction of the grain. Leave for 3-4 minutes and buff over with a clean cloth.
