Beautifully made pieces, crafted with attention to detail and whose antique effect captures the spirit of the 19th century. They are solid and sturdy, perhaps not ideal for playing blitz, but they were probably never intended for that 180 years ago! My pieces were 'slightly imperfect', but close inspection revealed only a very minor mark (about 1mm in size!) on the white king's crown and on the underside of a black piece, not the sort of blemishes you would notice unless you were an obsessive stickler for detail, in other words nothing to worry about.
As always, the pieces arrived promptly and in indestructible packaging.
