This Bamun shield from Cameroon was originally an important part of tribal weaponry, reflecting the spirituality and social beliefs of its people — pieces that carried great symbolic meaning and prestige.
The bold geometric patterns were designed to dazzle and disorientate opponents in battle.
Each shield is handmade, so size and design vary slightly from piece to piece.
Fitted with hanging fixtures on the reverse, ready to mount on a wall.
Size: 56cm H × 20cm L × 5cm W
