I am lucky to get this set from the clearance. Itโs such a bargain. I love the unique design of the bishops, and I really love this walnut stained color. The pieces are once again nicely crafted. Highly recommended!
My first time ordering a kind of collector's set from Royal Chess Mall, good discount offers, with free shipping to Thailand, took around 10 days, but it was worth the wait!
The pieces are incredibly well crafted, with beautiful colors, great quality felt, and overall perfection.
I've been disappointed by many chess manufacturers in the past, but after this first impression, I can confidently say that I'll absolutely buy more sets from RCM!
The chess set is of very good quality. In my opinion, if you had a slightly smaller version, say 3.5 king, that would be just perfect.
Once again, Royal Chess Mall satisfies its customers with the real
French Lardy Chess pieces. These pieces come in the correct King
height of over 3.75" for tournament play, and, just like the Chavet
pieces, the knights look like French Lardy knights, and not a cheap
copy. I had to wait 50 years to find a replacement for my earlier Lardy
pieces, and now, thanks to Royal Chess Mall, valued and loyal
buyers will enjoy these authentic Lardy pieces, hopefully for decades
to come. Thank you very much, Royal Chess Mall.
