Product description
This umbo is a replica of 9th century originals found in Norway. The Vikings used these tall umbos on their shields. The handle of the wooden round shield was attached behind the umbo. This umbo is handmade and otherwise left completely unprocessed. This makes it more similar to the historical originals.
