Lasers used to make Staffordshire Hoard replicas
Laser technology is being used to help create replicas of items from the Staffordshire Hoard.
The hoard contains 3,500 items of jewellery and weapons from Anglo Saxon times with a value of more than £3m.
The Jewellery Industry Innovation Centre in Birmingham is working with the city's Museum and Art Gallery to make pieces to go on show to the public.
