20 Sided Dice Patent Print

£15–£117£0

Every tabletop adventurer's most trusted companion.

This is the original patent drawing for the twenty-sided die — the mighty D20 that decides the fate of heroes. Granted on 8 June 1999 as US 5,909,874, the sheet lays the icosahedron bare: five figures turning it in space and unfolding it flat, every numbered face annotated with an engineer's precision.

There's a quiet magic in seeing something so playful rendered as a serious technical document — equal parts nostalgia and geeky reverence, a nod to a thousand nights spent rolling for initiative.

A brilliant gift for the tabletop gamer, the Dungeons & Dragons devotee or anyone who's ever held their breath on a natural twenty. Choose from six finishes — vintage Old Paper, architect's Blueprint, chalky Blackboard, crisp White, deep Navy or rich Burgundy — to suit any games room, study or shelf.

Order today and you can expect delivery 25th September - 1st October.

Print size & quality

Every piece is printed on thick, 175gsm fine-art matte paper with archival inks — so the colours stay rich, deep and true for years, with no fading and no fuss. Before it heads your way, it's wrapped in soft tissue to keep it scratch-free and sent out in a sturdy kraft tube or a robust triangular kraft box (never plastic).

Framing options

Fancy it ready to hang? Add a solid pine frame — sturdy, handsome and built to last. Take your pick from black, natural wood, or white. Each one is 20–25mm deep and 10–14mm wide: the sweet spot between strength and understated good looks.

We finish every frame with shatterproof, crystal-clear plexiglass to keep your print pristine — and it arrives already framed, so it goes straight from the box to your wall with no faff.

Framing is available for these sizes: A4, A3, A2, A1, 8x10, 11x14, 12x16, 12x18, 16x20, 18x24, 20x28, 24x32, 24x36 and 28x40.
