After seeing the great serie “The Queens Gambit” I knew a had to have this set in the best possible quality.
In that I succeeded by ordering this set.
What a great and marvelous chess set.
Thank you.

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.
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 truly lovely set. It’s not as heavily weighted as many sets but the wide bases on the pieces are more stable. This is the same set used in The Queen’s Gambit and I have already received many compliments for the board and pieces.
when you hold it you just feel nice
I love the design of these pieces, especially the knights with the mare on one side. Very sturdy. easy to slide. High quality.
Wow, what an amazing set. I am chess set collector, and if you are too, this is a must have!!
Playing with it, just wonderful. The Knight, lol, it has it's own style, feel, and the Rook, watch out,
how powerful does it look?! It is from the 1950's, Soviet Latvian pieces and it is in the
'Queen's Gambit' movie. Got to love all the pieces, a truly wonderful chess set!!
No wonder it is a best seller.
