Crafting Deception: The Ultimate Traitors Props for BBC’s Hit Show

All five giant chess pieces and the giant Traitor chess piece at the studio, ready for filming The Traitors.

We love a bit of mystery, mind games, and high-stakes drama—so when Studio Lambert and Bizibot asked us to create some seriously jaw-dropping props for the latest series of BBC’s The Traitors, we were all in.

From epic fabric creations to giant game pieces with a sinister twist, we went all out to help bring the show’s psychological battles to life.

The Props That Brought the Game to Life

A 6-metre Traitor’s Cloak – Draped in over 60 metres of fabric, this shadowy statement piece exuded power, secrecy, and just the right amount of menace.

A Viking-style dragon head & tail – For the longboat mission in episode 3, we crafted an authentic, battle-ready dragon figurehead that looked straight out of Norse mythology.

Five human-sized marble-effect chess pieces and a Traitor piece – For the tense chess game in episode 10, we sculpted towering game pieces, each representing a different role in the ultimate battle of deception:

🐍 A snake – Slippery, calculating, and impossible to trust.
🐭 A mouse – Small, unassuming… but always watching.
🐺 A wolf – The perfect predator, lurking in plain sight.
🎭 A two-faced figure – Because nothing is ever as it seems.
💀 A skull – The ultimate symbol of danger and finality.

❌ Bonus extra: A Traitor – Gliding ominously across the board, deciding the fate of players in one chilling move.
