Another starring role for Fife furniture firm
Fife vintage furniture specialist Scaramanga has supplied 15 products for the latest Judi Dench film.
Two travel trunks, a range of authentic Indian boxes, tins and leather journals appear in Victoria & Abdul, which opened in cinemas yesterday.
Scaramanga owner Carl Morenikeji said: “We’re proud and delighted to have supplied our products to a major movie for the sixth time in just five years.
“This is our largest and most diverse movie supply role yet and for it to be a royal film too with such a distinguished cast makes it extra special. It’s almost as good as getting a royal warrant.”
The film, directed by Stephen Frears, is based on the real-life relationship between Queen Victoria and her Indian servant, Abdul Karim.
Scaramanga has previously supplied props for The Hobbit, Dark Shadows, Maleficent and Edge of Tomorrow.
