Viking Shield Boss “Dragon”
Shield boss with etched brass ring
Viking Shield Boss “Dragon”
Shield boss (stainless steel) with etched brass ring
If I were a Jarl or a King I would probably go with a Dragon pattern on my shield. Wolves? Snakes? Ravens? All these creatures only seem to be strong and fast until the Dragon appears. If your spring starts with building a drakkar, saying goodbye to your family and going westward to conquer new lands and become a legend of Norse - this shield boss is for you. If the only place you feel comfortable is the heart of the battle among arrows and spears with brave friends around and against the whole world - than you are welcome to buy it.
Our most exclusive clothing and gear from “Viking” and “Shieldmaiden” collections are decorated with Dragon motifs, so - if your style is to be a most wanted and less vulnerable target for your enemies - just mount this boss in the middle of your shield. Forward is the only option for the warrior with the “Dragon” shield.

This is more than a shield boss, it is a work of art. Expertly done and very beautiful.
Do the brass nails shown in the photo's come with the boss?
Hi James! Brass rivets can be sent along with the boss upon request. No extra charge.
can you put custom engravings on your shield bos and what would be the extra cost thank you
We do custom etching sometimes, but first we need to see some picture or sketches. Please send us some more info and we`ll discuss it with our designer and armourer.
Around how big are they
Hi Zant! Plate diameter is 9 1/2 inches (24 cm). Sphere (fist bulb) diameter is 5 1/2 inches (14 cm).
I absolutely love these shields! Truely wish the design could incorporate ravens instead of the options available.
Custom etching with ravens is possible, please send the illustration to contact@armstreet.com. Price depends on the complexity of the ornament.
