Lessing Series (1927-37) are 17th and the last of recognized variants of staunton pattern chess pieces.
Our design is a precise reproduction of the last officially recognized design launched by Jacques of London. As with the originals, this set has been traditionally weighted using lead infused at the base of the chess pieces.
The set has been masterfully crafted in Genuine Ebony Wood and Boxwood with skilled artisanal work done on the knights.
Completely untreated and non dyed Ebony has been used on the black army. If looked closely, buyers will be able to see a beautiful grain pattern in the ebony side of the set.
This design confirms well to the traditional staunton pattern with no sharp edges or delicate carvings. The sturdy design of the pieces make it a joy to hold and play with.

the pieces feel luxurious, especially the black ebony. Would've been interesting if they used something else for the white pieces.
