The Declaration of Arbroath 3D Facsimile is a substantial limited-edition fine-art work, with many hours required to create each numbered piece.
Each facsimile was supplied with a signed and embossed certificate of authenticity, together with a 16-page booklet containing the full English and Latin translations, background information, and historical details on the surviving seals and their owners.
