These Pieces are Manufactured by Berkeley chess, A British chess manufacturer known to be one of the leading brands in the chess market based in Somerset, England. The original Isle of Lewis chess men were manufactured way back in 1831 using walrus ivory and whales teeth, discovered in Uig on the Isle of Lewis.
