DescriptionFive bands of rainbow on black, the darker sibling of the white-based version. Craft both and hang them side by side to see how much the base colour changes a gradient stack. The base colour is the only difference between the two, and it changes the whole palette.

#rainbow shieldsHow 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.
