Traditionally malgarr (shields) were used with liyangayil
(fighting clubs) for hand to hand combat with our enemies.
I have replicated the shape of these shields in my artwork.
Hand crafted in Australia from Australian Red Cedar timber.
All artefacts come with an information card.
The card has information about the artist, artefact and design.
All designs are based on traditional symbols from
South East Australia.
Size: Wall Malgarr Mini
Measurements: 260mm L x 90mm W x Varying Depth (generally 15-20mm)
Please note: Due to these items being handmade, these

Shields come with a hanger attached to the back (see photo)
to make for easy hanging on your wall.
