Deepeeka Shields

This hand-crafted Scottish Targe is a very well made replica of an original that was captured at the Battle of Culloden and now resides in the Royal Armouries Collection at the Tower of London. It is constructed from wood with a premium quality tooled leather face, suede back and decorative brass studs. A detachable spike is included on the rear but this is not a feature that the original would have included at the battle but rather a Victorian "improvement".

The leather covering may contain some natural inconsistencies, this does not affect the overall appearance or functionality of the product.

This helmet is of the type known as an archer's helm. This shape was commonly seen during the Wars of the Roses in England from 1455 to 1485. The rounded top and flared neck guard provided protection from missiles coming from above, while the wide face opening allowed for the unimpeded vision necessary for an accurate aim. This premium helmet features an attached liner and chin-strap in natural leather. Reproduced in steel, it is fully wearable by most adults.

Our painted Viking shield features Huginn and Muninn, Odin’s two ravens. Huginn is the old Norse word for “thought” and Muninn is the old Norse word for “memory”. Every morning at sunrise he sends them off to fly throughout all of the nine realms to gather information on what is happening. It is constructed from thick wood and features a wooden grip and steel boss. It is edged with rawhide to protect from sword and axe cuts. This shield is a little on the light side for full contact re-enactment but is perfect for theatre and film work and great as a display piece.
