    FROM RUSSIA, COMRADE

    Russian chessmen are a little different..... on purpose I think. A change from our usual Staunton comfort zone. But, that doesn't mean they cant be beautiful in their own right.

    These Soviet chessmen are a joy to play with in a game or when studying on your own. Delicate, well balanced, a pleasure to move around the Chess Board and once you get used them you will notice "Hey- these look great!" The threatening looking Rooks and the Knights on their pedestals

    are my favorite. And the excellent contrast provided by the ebonized & natural boxwood means this set will look good on any board you choose. I am very happy I added these to my collection and highly recommend them to all of you. - Stephen
