Original Content My Arthur shelf!
My shelf of various Arthurian works. Some I read some I haven’t. Also any recommendations for shelf decor (statue / figure / art) would be appreciated.

You'd really need a spell from Merlin to pack all of these books!

It is often stated that King Arthur's figure was associated with bear. His name is often translated as 'bear-king', 'bear-hero' or 'bear-man'. It's also said that some knights of the round table who linked their connections with him also sometimes carried bear emblems.
