FAQs

A dhal is a circular convex shield originating from India and Persia, characterised by four central bosses and constructed from steel, hide, or forged metal alloys.

Traditional shields were forged from steel or hide and decorated using techniques such as koftgari inlay, etching, engraving, and gilding, frequently finished with brass or gilt steel bosses.

Authentic period examples display evidence of hand-forging, natural oxidisation on the steel surface, age-appropriate wear to internal ring fittings, and hand-chiselled or inlaid decorative motifs.

An antique shield functions as a focal point when mounted on a feature wall above a sideboard, displayed within a library nook, or set inside a custom shadow box display.

Keep the piece in a dry environment with low humidity, dust gently with a soft cloth, and periodically apply a thin coat of microcrystalline wax to prevent rust and protect the metalwork.
