Dwarven Shields?
"For a physical shield (Buckler, Shield and Large Shield), Block is the shield's blocking value, equal to the base shield bonus (3 for Buckler, 5 for Shield, 7 for Large Shield), increased by 5% per Shield Skill, by 13% for dwarven shields (27% for dwarves), by 7% for elves wearing elven shields and by 13% for orcs wearing orcish shields (up to 30% for high-piety followers of Beogh)."
I noticed the whopping 13% for dwarven shields, almost triple normal shields. I can't figure out how to Wizard mode racial items, but at 15 shields a normal shield gives 27 SH for a HuFi. I have just gotten a Dwarven Shield on a legit DsWz, and will eventually get 15 shields to test it out, if I survive that is!
No relevant information on racial bonuses to shields on the knowledge bots either.
EDIT: Finally made a shop with a +0 dwarven shield. Turns out at all levels the SH value is simply one more than regular shields. Hmm...
