Description

Whether you’re preparing for a reenactment of a thrilling early medieval battle or searching for that authentic touch to complete your historical display, the Early Medieval Germanic Steel Shield Boss is the quintessential choice to elevate your gear. This meticulously Handmade Functional Umbo captures the essence of the Dark Ages and adds a genuine touch to your shield. With its robust design and exquisite craftsmanship, it promises not just aesthetic appeal, but functional utility.

Crafted from durable 16 gauge MILD STEEL, this shield boss stands as a testament to quality and resilience. Its diameter of approximately 16.5 cm and height of about 6.2 cm provide an ideal size for most shields, ensuring an authentic look while enhancing your defense during reenactments or striking displays. Weighing in at approximately 375 grams, this umbo offers a perfect balance between substantial presence and manageable weight, allowing for ease of handling without compromising durability.

Equipped with 4 rivets and washers, this shield boss isn’t just pretty; it’s practical. Each rivet features a 20mm long pin, ensuring a secure attachment to your shield, while the washers, with a diameter of about 14.5 mm (and an inner diameter of about 6.3 mm), provide extra stability. This means you can trust that your boss will remain firmly in place, even amidst the most vigorous battles.

Beyond its striking appearance and robust construction, this shield boss has been carefully coated with a layer of oil upon packaging. This protective layer works to guard against corrosion and rust, keeping your umbo looking pristine for longer. Should you wish to remove this coating to reveal the magnificent steel beneath, it can be easily wiped away with any oil remover or simply a dry cloth.

Imagine standing proud on the battlefield, your shield adorned with this authentic piece, its conical shape not only enhancing your historical representation but also proving to be an essential part of your armament. This shield boss isn’t only a decoration; it’s a functional accessory designed to withstand the test of time and combat.
