Desirability
The brooch of Shielding is basically an amulet of guardian spirit that also happens to provide some SH value. Like other amulets of guardian spirit, it is somewhat risky for spellcasters to use, though characters that weren't going to use their MP anyway will find it better than nothing, especially if they're already using a shield or other source of SH. Still, you might well prefer some other artefact amulet with resistances or other properties.
The brooch of Shielding is the shield equivalent of the rings of Robustness and Phasing.
History
Prior to 0.25, the brooch of Shielding was an amulet of reflection. Prior to 0.18, the brooch of Shielding was an amulet of warding with AC+4 and EV+4.
