So this week a lost Lewis Chessman was sold at auction for £735,000. Here is a Lewis Chesspiece I embroidered for my threadpainting book. Any offers in the region of the above would of course be very welcome..🤣🤣🤣 #threadpainting #needlepainting #tapestryshading #lewischessmen #lewischessman #peinturealaiguille https://www.instagram.com/p/BznaxKlnGdW/?igshid=1174bl17relmn

Very excited to finally be an owner of my very own Hnefatafl board game! This is a very old Norse or "Viking" game that is similar to, but predates chess. I can scratch this one off of the wish list, thanks to the @nhmu and NorseAmerica! Fun fact for biology lovers: the illustrious Carolus Linnaeus recorded much of our knowledge of the rules of the game! #hnefatafl #tafl #boardgames #chess #strategygames #game #games #tabletopgames #boardgame #viking #medieval #history #norse #scandinavian #linnaeus #carlvonlinne #carllinnaeus #caroluslinnaeus #biology #science #archaeology #archeology #lewischessmen
