Meine Mikhail Tal - Figuren heute ausgepackt. Verpackung war sehr gut, keine Beschädigungen, die Figuren sind genau wie auf den Fotos und passen perfekt auf die 57mm/2.25 inch Felder meines Schachbretts. Ich bin sehr zufrieden mit Royal Chess Mall, die Lieferung wurde wirklich schnell abgewickelt, wenn man bedenkt, daß es von Amritsar nach Frankreich ein weiter Weg ist.
Its a gorgeous set unlike some other sets Ive bought from others, including a dubrovnik and Hungarian set, this set has a really classic appearance. It truly looks like its not new even though it completely is. I have to say, I was surprised at the level of quality of this set ! Couldnt be happier. One piece broke on arrival, but I dont blame that on the supplier.
What RoyalChessMall did was to make a set with a king of 4 "and a reproduction that is not the same as the TAl photo, is clearly one of those variations. An exceptional set, with perfect manufacturing, a concern for fairness and balance between all the remarkable pieces, which gives the set an image of perfect simplicity so typical of many Soviet sets. Being a connoisseur and collector of Soviet chess pieces, I can say that a reproduction of chess pieces of this quality has rarely appeared on the market, careful in wood carving, in the aesthetic search of "not spoiling" the original. And that is very, very meritorious. pleasure to move these pieces. This set does not look bad in 5.5 square chessboard, but with 6.0 cm, you can see the beauty of these pieces and their "breath" on a chess board. Congratulations Royal Ches Mall
Feb. 4, 2021 The 1960's Soviet Championship Tal chess pieces arrived today after only one week to the day and I couldn't be happier! I especially like the flared tops of the rooks and the large, distinctive knights - unmistakably Tal era! Also of note are the pawns which are practicably impossible to tip over because of their wide, high bases. Of course the remaining pieces are great as well and anyone wishing to buy a ""Tal"" set should give this one a serious look - it's attractive and reasonably priced!
Excellent Set!
What a beautiful set and for sure a must have for any chess set collectors. It really has a unique style about it and all my friends love it.
One friend loved it so much I bought it again as a present for them. Just looks fantastic on the board and it is so nice to play with, you have to love the opposite color tips of the pieces on the King and Queen and Bishop. Thank you Royal Chess Mall for for reproduction!!
This set is a wonderful addition to my collection. This set goes well with my Zagreb, 1933 Botvinnik-Flohr, and 1950s Latvian-Soviet sets. This new set is beefy and sits the board. Wonderful craftsmanship!
I really like this set. It is unique and very appealing in design. The execution is quality artisan work as well.
Wow! Photos do not due them justice... The simplicity of the design, gives the pieces a understated elegance that took me by surprise when I unboxed them. I own several sets of luxury chess pieces, but this one is special. I almpst did not order it as the design is so simple... I am glad I did! Very please, don't miss out order your set today!
Chess pieces are very high quality and are truly beautiful. Amazing craftsmanship too. Fast shipping was amazing considering these pieces come from India. This chess set is a great price and a must have for any chess enthusiast or fan of the game.
