3.1" Library Series Staunton Schachspiel - nur Schachfiguren - gewichtetes Buchsbaum & Akazie

I wanted to add a "library-sized" set to my collection and saw this one on the RCM website. I expected this set to be lighter and smaller, but it's better described as stocky, but in a charming way. The acacia looks great and the design of the bishop really looks like a bishop's miter, yet is done with a strong and durable design. The horizontal lines on the rooks give them a brick tower looks and adds a touch of class. And it's a great value.

Very unique set. Particular.
Hard to find anywhere else; I love it.
Acacia wood dark pieces are even better looking in person than they are in pictures, with nice veins and shades. Sturdy set, low centered, very heavy !!
Perfect for fast paced games ( bullet and so on...) .

Beautiful

This is a short, stout yet cute set. Style-wise it combines the practical elements of the Staunton style with design elements from Calvert style sets, clearly seen in the queen, bishops, knights and rooks. I especially like that they found particularly dark acacia wood for the dark side. I'll definitely be bringing this one with me to the cafe to show it off.

Note, I already submitted a review, but apparently it wasn't a "verified" review.

Pieces are beautiful and heavy, I recommend!!

As advertised; delivered quickly; great product. Recommended for chess buyers.

nice item, quick delivery, excellent seller, A+++++

Very high-quality set, especially for the money. A great value! The ideal pieces for a medium size analysis setup. Fits perfectly on a 2" board. King actually measures 3.25", including finial.
