Made to order – Chess set, Ornate Staunton design in Stone and Jade effect. BOARD NOT INCULDED
This beautifully ornate, hand made, talking point chess set in an Ornate Staunton design is a great alternative to the traditional Staunton style of chess set.
With the familiar look and feel of a Staunton set but with the addition of ornate detailing giving this set an elegant design. Although the set does not come with a board, it would look great on a dark brown and cream coloured board.
A nicely sized set, with the tallest figure, the king, standing at 4 1/4" (11cm) with a 1 1/2" (4cm) base, while the shortest, the pawn, stands at 2 1/2" (6cm) with a 1 1/2" (3cm) base. The whole set (all 32 pieces) weighs in at approx 1.5KG.
PLEASE NOTE: There is no board with this set, see our listings for available boards.
The minimum size board square for this chess set is 1 7/8" (4.8cm) squared board and would be our recommendation. Shown on a 2 1/2" (6cm) squared board.
The set is cast in a hard and durable stone casting powder, giving each piece beautiful detail and definition. The hand colouring and finishing, using a method passed down through the family, ensures durablity and quality; futher enhancing the details. Each piece is completed with a felt base ensuring that your board does not become scratched.
Although this set is beautifully decorative, it is very durable and is intended to be used and enjoyed as much as displayed.
The colours for these pieces are a Stone for the light and a Jade colour for the dark.
Each piece is hand coloured and takes the colours and finish differently, so please beware that there will be slight variations between pieces.
Each piece will be individually wrapped and packed in a sturdy cardboard box ensuring the best protection possible. Wherever possible we will use recycled packing to reduce our environmental impact, so please don't be surprised if your chess set arrives in a pre-loved Amazon or cat food box!
