PICTURES #1 THRU #4 ARE MODERN SHIELDS DONE CLOSE TO TRADITIONAL FORM.
#5. THRU #12 ARE WHAT IS BEING DONE FOR SEVERAL YEARS AND PERHAPS LONGER. THEY ARE OFTEN IN SHIELD FORM BUT ARE MORE ART THAN SHIELD OFTEN CARVED WITH PIERCED DESIGNS. THE CARVING IS WELL DONE BUT THE WOOD USED IS NOT THE SAME AS USED FOR A REAL SHIELD IT IS HEAVIER AND DARKER. THEY DO MAKE GOOD WALL HANGERS AND IF YOU LIKE WOOD CARVING THEY ARE NICE. I DON'T KNOW WHERE THEY ARE CARVING THEM. |

HERE ARE A FEW MORE OF THE WALL ART CARVINGS AND THE LAST PICTURE IS OF A FANTASY SHIELD COMING OUT OF KALAMANTAN. THAT CONCLUDES MY CURRENT BACKLOG OF INFORMATION ON DAYAK SHIELDS UNTIL I CAN GET MORE PICTURES. PERHAPS SOME OF YOU CAN ADD TO THE REFERENCE OR CORRECT ME WHERE I HAVE GONE WRONG.
