This set is exactly what I was looking for. I like reproduction sets for the history, but I already have many antiqued sets made to look older. This set, with its beautiful red and white gleaming lacquer, looks so amazing on my blackwood/curly maple board. The photos on the website don't do justice to their shiny finish. They are also larger than you might expect, nicely sitting on a 2 1/4 in squares board. They are well weighted and feel wonderful in the hand and over the board. This set had been out of stock for quite a while, and when I received the email notification that it was back in stock I didn't hesitate. I am very pleased to have this fine set in my collection.
Excellent craftmanship. They fit perfectly on my Chessnut Air board. Well done, well made. Shipping a little slow but was sent from India. So, it was worth the wait.
One of the extra queens came with a slightly out of place weight, making it a bit wobbly, which I wasn't very happy about.
However, that doesn't take away from the beauty of these pieces and the fact that they arrived on time and safely packaged. The pawns are very small, but elegant. There is a clear contrast in size between the pawns and the other pieces. Overall, I'm happy to have bought this and to own yet another reproduced set of Soviet chess pieces. Thank you RCM :)
Initially I didn't think I'd like the thick bases as much, but now I definitely love them, and it gives the pieces a particularly nice feel, which I never got with any other set. Not only do the pieces feel good, but they also look good. Additionally, the pieces arrived on time and very safely packaged.
Some people may be wondering if the white pieces truly are as 'orange' as they appear in the photos, and the answer to that is: Yes, they are. They're definitely not white, but to me that's absolutely fine, as they are supposed to have an antique look, and I don't mind that at all, personally. Overall very happy, thank you RCM :)
Excellent set of Chess Pieces
I am very happy to have acquired this chess
I will definitely shop at Royal Chess Mall again in the future. Everything about their service is first class. From the easy online ordering to the speedy delivery from India to UK. Then there is the beautifully crafted pieces and the sumptuous 21" board - all top notch quality. I cannot praise this company enough and will soon be back for more !!!
A very nice, stylish and elegant chess pieces. The shape and configuration are pleasant to touch.
Beautiful set!! Extremely happy!
The chess set quality is good. However, the overall size was a bit larger than I expected. If you have a larger than regular size square table, then this set is fine. I would recommend it if you like a taller than average King size.
Ordered and received the 4.1" Pro Staunton Wooden Chess Pieces Only Set - Weighted Rose Wood. The craftsmanship is amazing 👏 Each piece is individually wrapped. Couldn't be happier with this purchase. Thank you 👍👍👍
i am delighted with this set
the service and craftsmanship are the best i have ever seen on a chess set
arrived in UK in 8 days ,packaging was perfect .i will use this company again
Great detail a work of art.
Thank you for this very good quality chess parts.
I would actually prefer slightly bigger squares without the decorative border because my chessmen are large,but the workmanship is flawless and the board is beautiful just like all the other items I have purchased from the Royal Chess Mall. I have a set of black and white alabaster checkers and for that it is perfect!
I had been wanting a well made, reasonably priced, solid chess set I could keep out and use for games with the kids or analysis purposes. Although attracted to the early nineteenth century Staunton design, I wanted something a little different. I was watching a review by “Random Chess Talk” and he had a Royal Chess Mall version of the Dubrovnik on hand. I liked what I saw, so I started researching other manufacturers versions of the Dubrovnik to get their spin on a classic, well researched, historically significant set. Royal Chess Mall hit all the marks in what I was looking for. Upon arrival I inspected the packaging and found no issues save for a small indent probably suffered during shipping; no fault to RCM and the pieces inside were fine. A couple high lights for me were the wide, solid bases and an almost linear progression from king down to rook. One thing I always thought was a distraction from a Staunton set is the king is generally disproportionate to the rest of the line in height. I applaud the updated rook that is truer to the original and think the knight one of the prettiest of any set I have seen. In closing, the set feels good in hand, well made, has no sharp points to distract from play, and is something I will be proud to pass on one day. At twenty percent off regular price and free shipping I definitely consider this an investment worth making. Thank you.
The Chess Pieces arrived very well packed and I can't see that imperfections have any effect. Would purchase again.
Beautiful! I wanted a nice set of pieces that would fit my 14x14 board (40 mm square) I got from my Grandfather long time ago! It was difficult to find a good quality set that could fit this relatively small board. I'm very happy with the quality and the feel of the pieces.
I am very happy with the chess set I have received from Royal Chess Mall. The board is beautiful and so are the pieces. It is not absolutely perfect - and I did not expect it to be, as it is hand-crafted from real wood. So, if you extensively examine the board and each piece, you will find what you might call some small flaws, tiny knots in the wood, or perhaps one or two pieces that are a slightly different shade to the others, but nothing that would detract from the overall enjoyment of admiring and using the set. And I think the price is very fair for what you get, with the 20% discount I was able to secure (just write to them and ask). Free shipping too. So, all in all, highly recommended. I am already tempted to buy a second set of a different design, although I absolutely do not need it and don't have the space for it! Mhm, maybe as a birthday present for my godson...
Love the chess pieces the quality is amazing and they honestly do feel expensive and are very well weighted and also very even in both weight and size of all the pieces. The only issue I have is that all the light boxwood pieces have this almost orange look to them depending on how light reflects on them. If you are thinking of buying this set I would definitely recommend it I give it a 9/10 for price and quality just the orange look being my own little concern. ☺️
This set is perfect for me! The size of the pieces, and especially the weight!! You won't find a heavier set. I like playing blitz and bullet with these pieces. The metal clank when capturing is fun.
The pieces are great looking, classic Staunton, with lots of detail especially the knights. Finishes seem durable.
Bottom felts could be damaged if not cared for. Wish the bishops had a deeper cut. Only criticisms I have.
My cat approves-
I love this chessboard. It is beautifully made and the color I chose goes very well with the set I chose to buy, just enough contrast I think.
Traveler pieces are of high quality, the dark pieces have a distinctive rich color only Bud Rose Wood can provide. The pieces will be wasted if only for display, they should be handled and played to be fully appreciated.
