BRAND NEW FROM THE HOUSE OF STAUNTON
Crafted from 40,000-year old Woolly Mammoth Ivory
(light) and Genuine Ebony (dark), this heirloom quality Chess set
has been crafted to replicate the exquisite design and proportions of the
original Staunton pattern Chessmen, registered by Nathaniel Cook in March
of 1849 and first manufactured by Jaques of London in September 1849. The
distinctive feature of this set is our Knight design, which is modeled
after the noble steeds from the Greek Parthenon (Elgin Marbles) and are
unsurpassed in beauty and craftsmanship.
As with all House of Staunton Chessmen, they exemplify the perfect
combination of beauty and functionality. The design, quality and
craftsmanship of this set is UNMATCHED by any set of Chessmen in its price
range. Nothing even comes close!
These full Club-sized Chessmen feature a 4.4" King with a 2.0”
diameter base. On the underside of the Chessmen is a luxurious
English-made leather base pad to protect the Chessboard from scratching
while the Chessmen are being used. Each set of Chessmen includes 34
Pieces, 17 light and 17 dark (including 2 additional Queens in the case of
pawn promotion.)
