Since its inception in 1849, the classic Staunton chess pieces are one of the most beautiful classically designed pieces available on the market. The Staunton line of chessmen was named after and endorsed by arguably the greatest chess player of his generation, British chess master Howard Staunton. Journalist, Nathaniel Cooke was credited with the original design, while the set itself was introduced to the world by John Jacques.
The thing that sets the style and design of Staunton apart from the others is that it has got approval for official chess tournaments. The king piece is perfectly carved with a crown on his head and a cross sign. Likewise, the queen wears a coronet and a small ball over the top. Each of the pieces are beautified and well-presented to enhance the overall look of the chess set.
