DescriptionA white-bearded face on brown, the founder drawn in the same style as the pirate shields. A quiet piece of Minecraft history to hang in a museum build or a server's hall of fame. The two white Fess layers at the end are the beard, which is how you know who it is.

    How to Apply This Banner to a Shield

    In Minecraft Java Edition, craft the underlying banner using the loom recipe above. Then, place a blank wooden shield and the crafted banner together in any crafting grid. The shield will inherit the banner's pattern.

    To summon the decorated shield directly using commands, select your Minecraft version in the command panel above and click Copy Command.
