This chess set includes our 1849 Heirloom Staunton chess pieces handcrafted from padauk and boxwood matched with our Padauk and Bird's-Eye Maple Molded Edge Chess Board and Classic. Our 18489 Heirloom chess set is a precise replica of the original Jaques London chessmen first introduced in 1849. This elegant pattern designed by Nathaniel Cook and endorsed by Howard Staunton paved the way for all future Staunton designs and the numerous variations. Each piece is masterfully turned on the lathe one piece at a time to exacting standards while the knights are hand carved by the most skilled craftsmen in the field. This is a thirty-four-piece set that includes two extra queens for pawn promotion. The king is 3.5" tall with a base diameter of 1.5", the perfect size for casual chess games at home. The pieces are sealed with a gloss lacquer finish and keeping with the original design, the rook and knight have king-side stamping. Heavily weighted for exceptional stability, the pieces have thick green baize pads for a soft cushion on the chess board. We include a Certificate of Manufacturer so you will always know what the pieces are, when they were made, and where they came from.Our Black and Ash Burl Deluxe Chess Board made for us by Rechapados Ferrer combines classic design with elegant features creating an eye-catching battlefield for your chess game.
