Description & SpecificationsCraftsmanship, materials & dimensions
This handmade wooden Viking shield centers on the Helm of Awe, framed by Celtic knotwork, for a piece rich in Norse symbolism and built with LARP battle use in mind.
The Helm of Awe (Aegishjalmur)
The Helm of Awe, or Aegishjalmur, is one of the best-known symbols associated with Icelandic and Norse folk magic, traditionally linked to protection and the projection of strength — a fitting choice for a shield rather than almost any other kind of decor. Its eight radiating arms are carved to fill the shield's circular face, echoing the symbol's own symmetrical design.
Product Features
- Solid wood construction reinforced with genuine leather straps
- Helm of Awe centerpiece surrounded by Norse runes and Celtic knotwork
- Adjustable leather arm straps sized for a comfortable, secure grip on most adults
- Custom engravings and motifs available on request
Finished with leather straps for larp battle use, it's built to actually be worn and carried, and the option for custom engraving means the piece can be personalized beyond the standard Helm of Awe design.
Perfect For
It's a strong pick for norse rune shield larp kits, custom engraved Viking shield builds, and general Helm of Awe collections, and its adjustable strap makes it genuinely practical for larp battles rather than display-only use.
