    Product Description

    The House of Staunton is proud to offer the Preston Series Chess set. A full club-sized Chess set, it features a 4.4" King with a 1.9" diameter base. The Chess pieces are hand carved by our master artisans and crafted out of the highest grade woods.

    As with all of our Chess sets, the Preston Series exemplifies a perfect combination of distinct beauty and functionality. It has been designed to withstand the rigors of practical play while maintaining an elegance which has become the hallmark of a House of Staunton chess set. The design, quality and craftsmanship of this set is UNMATCHED by any set of Chessmen in its price range. Nothing even comes close!

    The Chessmen are new and each set consists of 34 Chessmen, including four Queens, a standard that was introduced by The House of Staunton in 1993.

    The Chess Set comes with a Individually Numbered Certificate of Authenticity and an original manufacturer's plaque indicating the production number, with an adhesive backing that would allow it to be affixed to the underside of a Chess box.

      This set in blood rosewood is a real beauty. I cannot stop looking at it. Not only will you enjoy more every game but it will also shine in your living room... I specially like how well you can distinguish each piece from each other without distracting yourself and the balance between all the pieces. I find the knight, the bishop and the rock especially beautiful!
