The Elemental shield may be made during and after the Elemental Workshop I quest in the Elemental Workshop dungeon.

To make the shield, players must have a Smithing level of 20, an Elemental bar, a hammer or Golden hammer, and either a Battered book or Slashed book in their inventory. Players who have not completed Elemental Workshop III also need a battered key to enter the workshop. Smithing the shield grants the player 20 Smithing experience. To equip the shield, players must have completed the Elemental Workshop quest.

In addition to providing magical defence, the Elemental shield is necessary in order to defeat Skeletal wyverns (unless players own and have equipped a Dragonfire shield, a Mind shield, a Body shield, a Cosmic shield or a Chaos shield).

Trivia

When players wield the shield, it grows from the size of their fist to the normal size. This makes it one of the few items that have an animation for equipping.
If looked at closely, when equipping the Elemental Shield is slightly lower on the character than the Mind Shield when equipped.
The elemental shield is a possible required emote clue item in Treasure Trails.
It is possible to imitate the old home teleport, by dropping an Elemental shield and then resting while on the Elemental shield.
