DescriptionRed and blue corner cantons on white and nothing else, four layers of pure geometry. The cheapest way to give a team an instantly recognisable shield without drawing anything. Four cantons and nothing else, which makes it the purest geometry in the gallery.

    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.
