1950's Soviet Latvian Reproduced Chess Set- Chess Pieces Only- Ebonised Boxwood - 4"

Amazing set of reproduction chess pieces. They are supposed to be "slightly imperfect" but honestly, I had to spend 10 minutes examining in detail every piece just to find a couple of tiny imperfections.

Crazy high quality and are easy to move and feel great.

Highly recommended.. both the set
.. and the company.

Just received my second set of chessmen from Royal Chess Mall, the 1950s Soviet Latvian set. Delivery and packaging were impeccable, just like the first time. The design and craftsmanship are beautiful and I can´t keep my eyes off them. If I give only four and not five stars it is because the knights are not weighted enough (unlike my first set, the 1960s Soviet Championship Tal set, which is superbly weighted). Lack of sufficient weighting makes the knights kind of shaky. This could easily be remedied by enlarging the knight´s base to make it resemble the bishop´s. In that case there would be enough space for sufficient iron or lead inside. In addition, some pieces were not entirely flat at the bottom. The felt seems to have been glued in a hurry, without enough attention to detail. Having said that, these are minor issues, the set as such is beautiful and I love playing with it.

Very happy with the product. Real quality craftsmanship. Shipping was extremely fast.

I will admit, that I was skeptical because there was no reviews. But this is one of the best purchases I have made this year. The pieces have a nice weight and they are beautifully crafted. I was supposed to receive it by August, but arrived in less than a week. I will buy again from ROYALCHESSMALL.

This is a great looking set of chess pieces which I highly recommend!

Paquet arrivé rapidement et parfaitement protégé. Il est cependant regrettable qu’une boite en bois (même simple) ne soit pas livrée à l’appui de ces pièces pour les ranger. Pour le reste, très belle qualité de finition.

After watching the Queens Gambit series I wanted this set at all costs.
I got the ebonised B/W .
1950's Soviet Latvian is a classic, slim, minimalist, elegant set.
Very beautiful yet particular Knight . Very fat rook in contrast.
This was my 2nd purchase, here.
Fast Delivery and good communication.

Very nice, handcrafted figures and delivery faster than anounced.

Very happy young chess player!

The chess pieces came safely wrapped and in pristine condition. I’d suggest using your company to anyone.
