This authentically detailed shield is an officially licensed reproduction of the shield prominently featured in the opening battle scene of the first movie of the The Lord of the Rings trilogy. The High Elven Warrior Shield is a reflection of the artistic craftsmanship of Elven weapons and armor in Middle Earth. Measuring 54 1/2" L x 20 7/8" W, this meticulously detailed shield is crafted in fiberglass-reinforced cast resin, similar to the movie prop, and features an Elven vine design on the antique-finished shield face. The handle is aluminum and wood with genuine leather wrapped grip. The shield includes a cast metal bracket with braided leather strap that attaches to the handle so that the shield can be hung up for display. This adult collectible is strictly limited to 5000 pieces worldwide and is individually serialized on a solid brass plate mounted on the shield’s back to ensure authenticity. Includes a parchment certificate of authenticity, along with a second certificate personally autographed by production designer John Howe.
