Nothing can heighten your chess-playing experience more than the feel and weight of a finely crafted Staunton chess set. To pamper you, The House of Staunton offers our heirloom quality Collector Series boxwood and ebony Staunton pattern chess sets, heavily weighted and felted, crafted to replicate the exquisite design and proportions of the original Staunton pattern chess set, first made by John Jaques and Son of London in 1849.
The white King bears a gold embossed leather base. The King side Rook and Knight are marked with a small crown on their summits. The Knights, which are modeled after the noble steeds from the Greek Parthenon (Elgin Marbles) are unsurpassed in beauty and craftsmanship.
Each set is delivered with its original manufacturer's label an individual production number. These are far superior to any production Staunton pattern chess set available today. Indulge yourself - own a legend!
