We have been working closely with heritage reproduction specialists Relicarte on a retail project for the National Museum of Scotland.
The project revolves around the non-contact, high-quality reproduction of several key pieces from the NMS’ collection of Isle of Lewis (or Uig) Chessmen. These reproductions are now available for purchase in the NMS’ shop.
To date, we have produced 4 replica pieces, a king, queen, horseman (pictured) and bishop. A berserker and warder pieces have also been scanned and will be in production shortly.
