My set had no errors. They all sit flat with no rocking. I love this set an as interesting departure from the 1950s Dubrovnik. Smooth, a good feel in the hand, and the knight is a really nice combination of stylized design and simplicity.

Great service, fast delivery, no damages, well protected, and good communication!
Once I opened the box I was blown away from quality of carving, coloring / aging, and craftsmanship. I paired the chess set with my new maple / walnut chess board.
The chess box is root wood burl veneer.
Well done RCM Team! Two thumbs up for the subtle and very nice reproduction of these mid Century Europe chessmen!
The pictures attached do not do enough justice to the set, I am definitely enjoying them!

Beautiful chess pieces

These are amongst my favourite chess pieces. The design echoes the TSL chessmen of my childhood which were indeed French and had a concave curve to the bishop's mitre. These pieces form a perfect 4" set - big, chunky, well weighted, a delight to handle and graceful on the board. The design of the knight is a pleasing meld of simplicity and grace - all-in-all a near-perfect chess set.

Chess pieces are beautiful. The carver of the knight is fantastic. Finish is excellent on all. Fast shipping. 5 days from India to my home in USA. I will buy from again. Trustworthy seller AAAAA

Nice “throwback” set. Pieces are well weighted and nicely finished. Great set if you’re looking for something a little different ... very pleased.
