I bought several sets of the hinges and locks for some Norse style chests I was making. All I can say is this craftsman is excellent, the hinges work really well and are in keeping with my project. The lock and key is to the same superb standard, work well and really finish a sea chest off perfectly. I'm very happy with my purchases, fast delivery and well packaged. Excellent value for money considering the work that must go into these items.

These are the real thing. Not resin, not plastic — actual oxen bone, hand-finished and marked 1 to 20. If you've only ever rolled plastic dice, you're in for a treat.
Each die is approximately 2x2cm and carries the kind of weight and feel that no synthetic material can replicate. They're tactile, characterful, and genuinely ancient in spirit — perfect for anyone who takes their gaming seriously or wants something that stands apart from the usual.

A Brief History of Dice
Dice are older than recorded history. They're thought to have evolved from fortune-telling with knucklebones — and bone dice have been found across the ancient world: Egypt from 4000 BCE, Iran from 2800–2500 BCE, Skara Brae in Scotland from 3100–2400 BCE, and Viking burial grounds in Gotland, Sweden — which is where this style of die is inspired from.
When you roll one of these, you're part of a tradition that goes back thousands of years.

The dice is well made and as described. Will use it tonight in my latest game. Thank you!
Beautiful D20, clean edges and clear numbers. The natural pattern of the bone provides a very nice texture and feel to the die. Nice hefty weight, above plastic and resin but less clunky and loud than metal dice. All in all I'd recommend this die to anyone looking for a unique addition you their collection.
It's high quality and arrived quicker that I thought it would!
