Charles V Shield by Armaduras (Spain)

Crafted on a solid wooden body and trimmed with brass-finish metal, the Charles V Shield showcases rich black enamel-style coloration highlighted by gold-toned details. The central imperial eagle and quartered arms evoke royal authority, while three fleur-de-lis medallions and studded border hardware complete the stately look. Designed for decorative display, it includes both a rear handle and a hanging chain so you can present it on a wall or carry it as a showpiece for costuming, photo shoots, and themed rooms.

This piece draws inspiration from the heraldry associated with Charles V (1500–1558), King of Spain and Holy Roman Emperor. His court favored the dramatic black-and-gold palette and the imperial eagle—symbols of sovereignty and dynastic power across the Habsburg realms. Produced in Spain by Armaduras, this shield echoes the decorative parade and guard shields that adorned castles and armories throughout the Renaissance.

The Charles V Shield is a commanding display piece that brings imperial Renaissance flair to any wall. Whether you’re curating a medieval gallery, elevating a study, or outfitting a themed venue, this Spanish-made shield delivers museum-style presence with ready-to-hang convenience.
