    Description

    Description:
    T
    here are references to rattan shields already in the Rites of Zhou dating from approximately from 200 B.C. These however, were described as being rectangular in shape.
    The first circular rattan shields in official texts seem to date from the time of general Qi Jiguang. There are speculations that they were used in the earlier Song dynasty by general Yue Fei against the Jurchen invaders.
    Qi Jiguang himself mensions that they originated even earlier among Southern Chinese tribes. This is plausible, because the hot and moist climate there makes heavy armor extremely uncomfortable to wear.
    They were encountered by Western observers up to at least the summer of 1900, where both the imperial army and the boxers were still using them.
    After our testing, the shields we are making is at least afford 120kg weight and no fragile(if your weight is less than 120kg, you can stand on it to make a testing personally), very strong.
    Specification:
    The sizes are avaialbe with 60cm to 100cm diameter.
    We can also customize the shape and specification, contact us for more details!
