Someone on here has to have some kinda knowledge about these two Warrior shields and two spears I've got. If someone could tell me anything I'd be greatful. And it'd be nice to know the value of them. Thanks in advance!
P.s I'd be happy to give more photos if needed.

They look like Maasai warrior shields. I don't know about value, though. There are visually similar shields on EBay for around $100, but I would think age, condition, and authenticity would have a big effect on value.

Yeah I seen them ones but they're a great deal smaller than the ones I've got. I believe these have seen battle. Due to the markings on them. And the different colors and designs represent the warriors ranking in battle.

Value depends on the provenance of the items and documentation. If you got them at a yard sale, not much.

I inherited them after my grandfather passed away. He was actually knighted. I've got a lot of really cool stories. He traveled all over the world. I also got one of his walking cane's that was made in hand carved in Africa.
