About Us...
Saemarr
Saemarr, the original founder of organised ‘dark ages’ re-enactment in the The U.K has over 40 years of equipment making for theatrical, film T.V, museum, re-enactment and collectors requirements. Although Saemarr himself took a well earned back seat in the early 2020's, we continue to offer an economic and reliable service from our Dorset based workshop, putting experience, creativity and skills at your disposal.

Like most suppliers of bespoke goods, when necessary, we employ the skills of specialist artisans to help ensure that you, the customer may get the benefit of wide ranging expertise, but unlike other traders, we never keep a stock of ‘ready to sell’ wares made by others, or items available elsewhere.
Our head smith Ulf is a relative newcomer only having become involved in re-enacting in 1982. It was three years later that the creative collaboration between he and Saemarr first came into being, but how both fit into the same busy workshop is a mystery! Today, Ulf operates from his own Wessex based workshop and things are a little less cramped, but the same ethos continues!

The illustrated catalogue of products below, is intended to list standard items and prices, and act as a guide to newcomers ‘windowshopping’ or getting ideas upon which to base their orders.
Email or telephone customers are encouraged to ask about historical or fantasy based items, and send in reference material and personalised variations of form, size, colour –not to mention function, such as weapons made blunt edged for theatrical use –or sharp for living history and collection displays.
The categories are generally laid out in historical period / genre except for the Jewellery and Regalia listings or fantasy items.
It is of course impossible to show on this website the full variety of gear available or which we make to order… Jewellery and regalia for heathen religious purposes, costume clothing, accoutrements and leather goods, helmets, footwear, theatrical props and domestic equipment replicas for nearly all periods and cultures, including works of fine art.
Just let us know what you need, and we’ll discuss it!
