Product description
A beautiful medieval round shield by Windlass Steelcrafts, based on medieval shields that were used between the 13th and 17th century. With a diameter of 59 cm, this shield has a smaller and more manageable size than full shields. Due to the maneuverability of this small size and the ability to move faster, smaller shields were preferred by many soldiers. This shield is made from 18 gauge steel and has a leather grip on the back. Perfect for medieval reenactment or medieval costumes.

Maintenance & care
Prevent rust and corrosion by oiling your armour regularly. Remove rust easily with black sandpaper.
Tip: How to adjust the finish of your armour and weaponry
Luxurious (polished)- polish the steel with metal polish or toothpaste. You can even give the item a mirror-like polish. Test on a small surface first!
Handmade (matte)- soak the steel in cola for 40 minutes to 20 hours. Check regularly and treat with black sandpaper.
Antique (patinated) leave the steel to rust for some time in a damp environment, preferably outside. Remove the red layer of rust, to reveal the corroded top layer.
