Seller: rsword ✉️ (1,796) 100%, Location: Raleigh, North Carolina, US, Ships to: WORLDWIDE, Item: 192137946153 NICE OLD ANTIQUE UNKNOWN SHIELD ASIAN INDIAN EASTERN NO SWORD DAGGER. Being offered is a nice old antique shield of unknown origin.  It is a good size shield measuring 18 3/4" by 18 3/4".  The decoration is unusual but the type and style of decoration make me lean towards Asia.  Perhaps Chinese or Vietnamese?  Korean?  The roosters depicted have a strong Asian flavor.  Also, the flowers depicted have more of an Asian flair than India or the Middle East.  Another unusual feature is the boss.  It is a large dome shaped boss.  Seems more like something you would see on an Asian helmet or hat than an Indian or Eastern shield.  Even the shape seems more Asian than Indian or Eastern.  It is flatter in section than you typically find. The shield is thick lacquer over wood with inlaid decorations.  Those decorations appear to be metal that have been painted and then inlaid into the lacquer surface.  Interesting technique.  There is loss to the lacquer on the surface.  The reverse has a single lug so unsure exactly how this was carried.  A very interesting and unusual shield.  Again, my best guess is Asian possibly Chinese, Vietnamese or Korean.  Please e-mail with any questions.  Please view my other auctions for a great variety of swords, daggers and tribal art.   Sword, dagger, knife, shield, Asian, Chinese, Vietnamese, Korean, Indian, middle eastern,
