The Royal Selangor Lewis Chess Set brings one of history’s most iconic collections to life, recreating the famous 12th-century Lewis chessmen in beautifully crafted pewter.
Each piece is a replica of the walrus-ivory originals discovered on the Isle of Lewis in 1831—capturing the expressive faces, carved details, and distinct character of the medieval set.
The two opposing sides are finished differently: one in polished pewter with a soft gleam, the other in a dark matte tone for clear contrast.
The board, crafted from nyatoh wood, features a scorched interwoven knot motif inspired by the design carved on the original king’s throne.
This is a museum-inspired chess set made for collectors who value historical significance and artisan detail.
At 38 cm x 38 cm, this board offers a compact footprint that suits the smaller medieval-style pieces perfectly.
Crafted from nyatoh, the board’s surface is scorched with an interwoven knot motif, echoing the pattern carved onto the original Lewis king’s throne.
This gives the board a textural richness and visual depth that complements the characterful pewter pieces.
At 3 cm tall, the board has a solid, display-ready presence without occupying too much space—ideal for offices, bookshelves, or living rooms.
The pieces range from 3.5 cm to 6.5 cm in height and are sculpted with attention to the distinctive forms of the original Lewis chessmen:
One army is finished in bright, polished pewter, the other in a dark matte pewter, giving perfect contrast for both play and display.
The weight and texture of the pewter give each piece a solid, satisfying feel—ideal for collectors who value authenticity and craftsmanship.
This set is part of Royal Selangor’s official collaboration with the British Museum, drawing directly from one of the most famous archaeological finds in European history.
Each replica is cast, finished, and polished with exceptional care, capturing the charm, character, and medieval artistry of the original walrus-ivory pieces.
Every piece is marked with the British Museum logotype, ensuring authenticity and collectible value.
Now available through Sterling Chess, the Royal Selangor Lewis Chess Set is a perfect choice for history enthusiasts, collectors, and anyone who appreciates a chess set rich in cultural significance and artisan detail.
“The Sterling Chess team is a huge admirer of Royal Selangor chess sets for their exquisite design, craftsmanship, and collectible appeal. Each set is a true work of art — beautifully sculpted in fine pewter and often inspired by legendary themes like Star Wars and other pop culture icons. These high-end creations combine storytelling with superior quality, turning every match into a cinematic experience worthy of display.”
