Beautiful design.

Fits perfectly on a 2" square board.
Item was exactly like the pictures. Everything was delivered in perfect conditions and on time.
Very nice quality
Very beautiful wooden chess pieces, the price is a bit expensive.
Fantastic set. Truly fantastic. Nice weight, beautiful wood. Mine had a small, small chip in the knight, but I don’t mind. It gives it character.
Great pieces, great weight and feel. These come individually wrapped so that there was no damage in transit. The pieces are good size and great quality, I will not be looking at getting any other pieces as these are just right.
Packaging was very secure, shipment was very prompt. Great product, I love them.
hi quality - shipped well, very satisfied.
